Several common misunderstandings about ovarian cysts

There are some misunderstandings about ovarian cysts among female friends. Because of these misunderstandings, some female friends do not pay attention to the treatment of ovarian cysts, which is not good for their health. What are the common misunderstandings about ovarian cysts ? The following is a discussion of the common misunderstandings about ovarian cysts.

In general, common misunderstandings about ovarian cysts include:

1. Cysts will disappear after menopause.

Most patients believe that the formation of ovarian cysts is related to estrogen in the body and will disappear after menopause as estrogen decreases. In fact, this is not entirely true. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the formation of cysts is caused by internal injuries, blood stasis, or phlegm stasis causing blood stasis. Here we should remind patients who have cysts before menopause that some cysts will not disappear after menopause, but will worsen with the changes in the ovaries due to aging, and even worsen. This is a common misunderstanding of ovarian cysts.

2. If you don’t have sex, you won’t get cysts.

This is also a common misunderstanding about ovarian cysts. The incidence of ovarian cysts is second only to cervical cancer, and unmarried women can also suffer from them. Many unmarried women think that they have no sex life, so they will ignore the occurrence of ovarian cysts. They may not go to the hospital until they experience sudden pain in the lower abdomen due to cyst torsion or rupture. Therefore, this type of disease is often misdiagnosed as pain, which leads to the cyst not being treated in time.

The above is an introduction to the common misunderstandings about ovarian cysts, and I hope it will be helpful to female friends. If there are these misunderstandings about ovarian cysts, they should be corrected in time to avoid missing the best time for treatment, which will seriously delay the disease and be detrimental to the patient.
