Are ovarian cysts and polyps the same thing?

Generally speaking, ovarian cysts and polyps are different, and there are differences in the nature and treatment of the two.

The specific analysis is as follows:

1. Nature: Generally, ovarian cysts are smaller than 5 cm and can be considered physiological in nature. Most patients disappear naturally without treatment. However, polyps usually appear in the cervix of women, which may lead to the possibility of cervical lesions in women. It is necessary to follow the doctor's advice and use Chinese medicine such as Plantago, Alisma, and Silver Chen for treatment.

2. Treatment: Polyps will not disappear automatically. If the condition is serious, timely surgical treatment is required, and then pathological examination is performed to determine whether it is benign. However, ovarian cysts generally refer to benign ovarian tumors, which are the most common gynecological diseases. The mass is generally relatively small and is a non-neoplastic ovarian cyst. It can be observed for a short period of time, and usually requires surgical treatment under the guidance of a doctor if it is serious.

Patients with ovarian lesions should pay attention to the cleanliness of the vulva, not have sexual intercourse too frequently, and avoid unclean sexual intercourse.
