What are the symptoms of chocolate ovarian cysts?

Chocolate ovarian cyst is a "lump" but not a "tumor". It is a type of endometriosis. It is the most common type of endometriosis. As the course of the disease progresses, the blood in the cyst continues to increase, and the size of the cyst also increases. So, what are the symptoms of chocolate ovarian cyst?

Gynecologists have made detailed descriptions of the symptoms of chocolate ovarian cysts:

1. Dysmenorrhea is the main symptom of chocolate ovarian cysts. It is secondary and worsens year by year, but a few patients do not have obvious dysmenorrhea. Excessive menstruation and heavy menstrual blood are also common clinical symptoms. Generally, the regularity of the menstrual cycle is manifested by excessive menstrual bleeding or prolonged menstruation.

2. Pain during sexual intercourse: Endometriosis in the rectouterine fossa, posterior vaginal fornix, uterosacral ligament and other parts can cause pain during sexual intercourse, and it is often more obvious before menstruation.

3. Infertility: About 30-70% of patients with endometriosis suffer from infertility. Among patients with unexplained infertility, about 70-80% of patients have endometriosis. Patients are often infertile due to mechanical factors such as pelvic organ adhesions, which hinder the peristalsis of the fallopian tubes or block the fallopian tubes. It may also be related to factors such as ovarian insufficiency, enhanced autoimmune response, increased prostaglandins, and increased prolactin.

4. Ovarian endometrial cysts have brittle cyst walls that lack elasticity. Menstrual blood gradually accumulates, and the pressure inside the cyst continues to increase. The contents can rupture from the weak parts of the cyst wall, overflow into the abdominal cavity, stimulate the peritoneum, cause peritonitis, and result in acute abdomen.

In general, chocolate ovarian cysts are very small at first, but they develop very quickly. If you don't pay attention, it will lead to more serious symptoms. Therefore, I hope that women will pay attention to the above content and do a good job of ovarian disease prevention to avoid letting the disease take advantage of the opportunity.
