Will follicular cysts go away naturally?

Follicular cyst is a relatively common female physical disease. The occurrence of follicular cyst will easily affect women's physical health and may also easily lead to fertility problems. If the follicular cyst is smaller than 5-2 cm, you can carefully observe the body. If there is no sign of development, it will disappear on its own or be absorbed by the body. If it develops and becomes larger, treatment is required.

Will follicular cysts go away on their own?

Generally speaking, benign cysts such as follicular cysts are mostly less than 5 cm and about 3 cm in size. Such conditions can be observed for a few months. If there is no change in two months, then after a period of time, such cysts may disappear on their own. In this case, no treatment is required.

After a follicular cyst occurs, there are usually no symptoms and it is only discovered during an examination. Such a condition will generally be absorbed or disappear naturally. In some individual cases, it will cause endometrial hyperplasia, postmenopausal vaginal bleeding, persistent follicular secretions, and precocious puberty in young women. Breast enlargement, tenderness, and increased estradiol in the blood.

Follicular cysts may occur in women of any age. Of course, different ages and different conditions require different treatments. When the condition is more serious, surgical treatment is required. Before the operation, the patient must have some detailed understanding to ensure that the operation can proceed smoothly.

Note:

The occurrence of follicular cysts is related to the patient's diet. We must pay attention to our diet in daily life. Sleep every night is very important. Long-term lack of sleep can easily lead to this disease, especially for women who reach a certain age. They need to go to the hospital for regular physical examinations.

Causes

The causes of follicular cysts involve both physiological and pathological aspects. The occurrence of cystic follicles and follicular cysts is due to: ① dysfunction of the hypothalamus-pituitary-ovarian axis; ② thickening of the ovarian tunica albuginea and obstruction of follicle rupture; ③ the fetus and newborn are affected by hormones secreted by the placenta and maternal hormones.

Clinical manifestations

Follicular cysts generally have no symptoms and are discovered accidentally during gynecological examination or cesarean section. The cyst will be absorbed and disappear naturally after 4 to 6 weeks. In some individual cases, the continued secretion of estrogen by the follicles causes excessive endometrial hyperplasia and postmenopausal vaginal bleeding, which may cause pseudo-precocious puberty in young girls.

examine

Hormone level testing, tumor marker testing, and histopathological examination.

diagnosis

The diagnosis can be made based on clinical manifestations, signs and the above examinations.

Differential Diagnosis

1. Cystic granulosa cell tumor

Cystic granular cell tumor is composed of a single granular cell, which is in a proliferative state and has easily visible nuclear division, which is significantly different from the degenerative changes of the cells in this disease.

2. Cystic corpus luteum pregnancy

Granulosa cells and theca cells are significantly luteinized, with yellow rosette-like structures preserved at the edges, which are caused by pregnancy and are different from the luteinization of follicular cysts.
