Ovarian cysts cause weight gain

Ovarian cysts cause weight gain

Xiaokun is my college classmate. She is very pretty and has a good figure. After graduation, she married her boyfriend whom she had been in love with for 4 years. They both have stable jobs and are often "aided" by their parents. They live a very bourgeois life, which makes us very envious. But Xiaokun also has her troubles. Since getting married, her weight has been rising in a straight line. Every time when classmates gather, everyone jokes that she is nourished by love, but she just laughs it off. Xiaokun told me privately that my fat is concentrated in my abdomen and I am often mistaken for a pregnant woman. I tried to explain it at first, but later I was too lazy to explain it. It's really distressing.

Doctors may be more sensitive, so I told her that she didn't look like she was simply obese, and that she might be suffering from some disease. She should go to the hospital for a checkup. So I helped her make an appointment with a gynecologist. After the examination, she was diagnosed with a huge ovarian cyst. Fortunately, she had not yet developed complications such as pedicle torsion. She was scheduled to undergo an ovarian cyst removal surgery as soon as possible. The size of the tumor removed was 18cm×15cm×15cm and weighed 7.9 kg. Xiaokun recovered well after the operation, and her fertility was not affected by the loss of one ovary, because six months after the operation, I received news that she was pregnant, and this time she was really pregnant.

Tips--Giant ovarian cysts are prone to pedicle torsion after a sudden change in body position or impact, and may even cause the cyst to rupture and bleed. When the cyst flows into the abdominal cavity, it will cause severe peritonitis, followed by infection and toxic shock. In severe cases, it may endanger the patient's life and should be actively treated.
