What are the dangers of ovarian cysts to women?

1. Cause infertility: Once the ovarian cyst becomes larger or degenerates, it is possible that the sperm, egg or fertilized egg cannot function normally, thus affecting fertility and leading to infertility.

2. Premature aging of appearance: Ovarian cysts can cause endocrine disorders, premature aging, malignant changes, and even ovarian cancer. Women with premature ovarian failure have 510 times less hyaluronidase in their skin to retain moisture than normal people. Their skin tends to become loose and lose elasticity and luster, causing wrinkles and pigmentation.

3. Cause miscarriage or dystocia: Ovarian cysts may cause miscarriage in early pregnancy, ovarian cyst pedicle torsion is prone to occur in mid-pregnancy, and larger cysts in late pregnancy may lead to abnormal fetal position, which may block the birth canal and cause dystocia during delivery.

4. Cyst rupture is life-threatening: When an ovarian cyst grows to a certain size, complications may occur: infection, cyst pedicle torsion, bleeding or rupture, which may endanger the woman's life.
