What causes ovarian cysts?

Women always have some conditions, and sometimes they are simply impossible to prevent. Many women have ovarian cysts, especially during the quarterly check-ups. Some women are often told that they have cysts. Although most cysts are benign, when they grow on their bodies, whether they are benign or malignant, they make people feel uncomfortable. So what causes ovarian cysts? Let me introduce it to you!

Ovarian cysts are a type of ovarian tumor in a broad sense. The complexity of ovarian cyst tissue morphology exceeds that of any other organ. This is because:

① The tissue structure of the ovary has potential for development and pluripotency;

② The ovaries are very close to the urinary system during embryogenesis, and some mesonephric tissue can stray into the ovaries;

③The ovaries originate from the embryonic genital ridge, are homologous in men and women, and differentiate posteriorly. Therefore, the causes of ovarian cysts are very complex, many times more than normal causes.

Causes:

1. Genes. According to statistics, 25% of ovarian tumor patients have a family history.

2. Endocrine factors. Although the ovaries are small, they are important organs that produce eggs and ovulate, secrete hormones, and balance endocrine system. Ovarian tumors often occur during the reproductive age when endocrine system is active. Clinically, the basic pathophysiological change in many patients with ovarian cysts and polycystic ovary syndrome is that the ovaries produce too much androgen, and the excessive production of androgen is the result of the synergistic effect of abnormal functions of multiple endocrine systems in the body.

3. Lifestyle factors. Long-term dietary structure, bad living habits and excessive psychological pressure will cause excessive acidification of the body, a decline in the overall function of the human body, and the development of abnormal proliferation of ovarian tissue, eventually leading to ovarian cysts and even cancer.

4. Environmental factors. Food contamination, such as plant growth hormones used in vegetables, and hormone ingredients such as clenbuterol in formula-raised livestock and poultry. In recent years, with the improvement of living standards and changes in eating habits in my country, as well as the abuse of hormone drugs and tonics such as breast augmentation, weight loss, and anti-aging by some young and middle-aged women, the high incidence and younger age of ovarian tumors may also be related.

After reading the above introduction, I believe you have a more comprehensive understanding of the causes of this disease. There are many factors that lead to ovarian cysts. If you have this situation, you must not be afraid to seek medical treatment. Timely treatment is the best choice. Sometimes conservative treatment can be used to control the disease with medication, but sometimes surgical treatment is required. However, most surgeries are currently minimally invasive and have a high success rate.
