What are the causes of ovarian cysts and how to prevent them

What causes ovarian cysts and how can they be prevented?

The main causes of ovarian cysts are as follows:

1. Premature ovarian failure and premature menopause will cause the ovaries to stop functioning prematurely, leading to infertility.

2. Systemic, chronic diseases, and metabolic diseases: Some systemic diseases, hyperthyroidism, diabetes, adrenal dysfunction, etc. can affect ovarian function and lead to infertility.

3. Ovarian diseases such as congenital absence of ovaries, immature ovaries, premature ovarian failure, polycystic ovaries, and ovarian tumors can affect the ovarian ovulation function and lead to infertility.

4. Central influence: endocrine disorders of the hypothalamus, pituitary gland, and ovary, pituitary tumors or scars, mental stress, and excessive anxiety can affect the hypothalamus-pituitary-ovarian axis and affect ovulation inhibition.

Ovarian cysts can be prevented through regular gynecological examinations, early detection, early diagnosis, and early treatment. If ovarian abnormalities are found and cannot be diagnosed, regular follow-up is necessary to check whether the contralateral ovary is normal and whether reproductive function is retained based on the patient's age.
