Treatment of ovarian cysts should be based on type of treatment

Ovarian cysts are mainly divided into 4 types, and corresponding treatment measures can be taken according to the different causes of each type.

1. Functional cyst

Functional cysts are mainly caused by excessive physiological reactions caused by factors such as endocrine dysfunction, insufficient secretion of progesterone or drug stimulation.

Treatment measures: The treatment principle of functional cysts should be based on close monitoring and regular examinations. Generally, functional cysts will disappear automatically in about two weeks, and no special treatment is required. Just check at any time and check regularly. If the cyst has not shrunk or disappeared after 1 or 2 months, Chinese medicine can be used to regulate the endocrine system until the symptoms disappear.

2. Hemorrhagic cyst

The cause of hemorrhagic cysts is related to the rapid growth of follicular cysts or corpus luteum cysts, which can easily lead to traction of ovarian tissue and rupture and bleeding.

Treatment measures: Hemorrhagic cysts usually disappear on their own, but it takes a long time. Patients need to pay attention to physical changes at any time and have regular check-ups. If they feel unwell, they should take medication immediately. Unless the patient's condition is very serious, this type of cyst generally does not require surgical treatment.

3. Chocolate Cyst

Chocolate cysts, also known as endometriomas, form a large amount of sticky chocolate-colored fluid in the ovaries. As the tumors grow larger in the ovaries, they gradually erode normal tissues and cause irreversible damage to the ovaries.

Treatment measures: If the cyst is small, traditional Chinese medicine can generally be used for treatment; if the cyst is large or even ruptures, immediate surgery is required to prevent fluid from flowing into the abdominal cavity and causing serious physical damage.
