What is ovarian cyst bleeding?

What is ovarian cyst bleeding and what are the symptoms?

Ovarian cysts are a type of ovarian tumor in a broad sense. They can occur at any age, but are most common in women aged 20 to 50. Ovarian tumors are common tumors of the female genitalia, with various properties and forms, namely: single or mixed, unilateral or bilateral, cystic or solid, benign or malignant, among which cystic is the most common, and the degree of malignant transformation is very high.

Generally, cysts can cause bleeding, and the symptoms and signs vary depending on the nature, size, development, and presence or absence of secondary degeneration or complications of the tumor.

Common symptoms include:

1. Abdominal mass

The biggest feature of a medium-sized or smaller intra-abdominal mass, if there is no complication or malignancy, is its mobility, which can often move from the pelvic cavity to the abdominal cavity. The mass is generally not tender, but if there is a complication or malignancy, not only will the mass itself be tender, but there may even be symptoms of peritoneal irritation.

2. Ascites sign

The presence of ascites is often a feature of malignancy, but benign cysts such as ovarian fibromas and papillary cystadenomas can also produce ascites. Endocrine symptoms such as hirsutism, deepening of the voice, and clitoromegaly are virilizing cysts.

3. Cachexia

It is characterized by an extremely distended abdomen, marked weight loss, a painful facial expression, and severe exhaustion.
