Female cysts are divided into several types

Many people associate cysts with cancer. Although the two do have many connections, they are two completely different concepts. Cyst is a benign disease. As long as it is controlled and treated in time, it can generally be restored to health within a very short time. There are many categories of female cysts. Once they occur, they will bring many negative effects to women's lives. So what are the categories of female cysts?

7 Types of Ovarian Cysts

1. Chocolate cyst: Endometriosis grows in the ovaries, forming a large amount of sticky brown and chocolate-like liquid.

2. Functional cysts: They occur in women of childbearing age during the ovulation cycle. They are caused by an abnormal amount of fluid accumulating in the follicles or corpus luteum. Although they can sometimes be very large, they usually disappear on their own within three months regardless of whether medication is used or not.

3. Teratoma: This is a very special cyst. It may be caused by a problem in cell differentiation during the embryonic period. It will produce hair, teeth and some oil accumulation in the ovary. So it is best to remove it early.

4. Hemorrhagic cyst: Follicular cyst and corpus luteum cyst grow too rapidly, causing the ovarian tissue to be pulled and bleed. When blood has no outlet, it accumulates in the ovary and becomes a hemorrhagic cyst. It usually goes away on its own but it takes a long time. Medication can be taken to relieve symptoms. In a few cases, patients with more severe symptoms may require resection.

5. Ovarian cancer: Generally speaking, middle-aged and elderly women are more likely to get epithelial cell cancer, which has a higher chance of recurrence and a poor prognosis.

6. Serous epithelial cysts and mucinous epithelial cysts: Because the serous cells and mucinous cells with secretory functions are buried in the ovaries after ovulation, they continuously secrete fluid to form cysts. Requires surgical removal.

7. Endometrioid tumor: The tumor has a smooth surface and is often unilocular. Its inner wall is composed of a layer of tall columnar epithelium that is very similar to the endometrium.

Early signs of ovarian cysts

Ovarian cysts are located in the pelvic cavity and have no symptoms in the early stages. However, once they are confirmed to be malignant tumors, they spread very quickly, so any subtle abnormalities in the body should not be ignored and should be discovered as early as possible.

Dysmenorrhea: You never had dysmenorrhea, but suddenly one day, you started to have dysmenorrhea or the dysmenorrhea became worse.

Infertility: After two or three years of marriage, neither your husband nor you have used any contraceptive methods. You are looking forward to having a baby, but are always disappointed.

Frequent urination: I used to sleep through the night and never got up at night, but recently, I have been tossing and turning 3-4 times a night without drinking any water before going to bed.

Menstrual disorders: Menstruation, which used to be very obedient and regular, has become completely irregular in recent times.

Enlarged lower abdomen: I have been controlling my diet just to lose weight, but I haven't eaten much recently and my lower abdomen has grown. I touched my lower abdomen and felt a lump, which was very clear especially in the morning after I got up, but I couldn't feel it after urinating.

Once the above symptoms of ovarian cysts appear, you should go to the hospital for examination immediately!
