What to do if the right ovary is enlarged

Some female friends find that their right ovary is enlarged during gynecological examinations, which makes them feel very uncomfortable and they don’t know whether this is normal. When people reach puberty, women's ovaries will enlarge due to increased estrogen secretion. However, we need to look at the specific value of ovarian enlargement, because excessively large ovaries can also affect the health of the body. Let's take a look at the normal value of ovarian size.

Under normal circumstances, the size of a woman's ovaries is closely related to factors such as age. If the ovaries are abnormally enlarged, it indicates that there may be a tumor, but further observation and diagnosis are needed.

Experts say that the normal size of an ovary in an adult is an average of 2.93 cm for the left side and 2.88 cm for the right side. The average width on the left side is 1.48 cm, and the average width on the right side is 1.38 cm. The average thickness on the left side is 0.82 cm, the average thickness on the right side is 0.83 cm, and the weight of the ovary is 3-4g. The size of an average adult's ovary is about the same as one's thumb.

Usually, the diagnosis of ovarian tumors is difficult to distinguish due to the different sizes and characteristics of the tumors in different patients. It is necessary not only to pay attention to changes in the reproductive organs, but also to other conditions and the relevant medical history of other important organs. In addition to paying attention to the characteristics of the tumor itself, you should also be aware of the overall condition and conduct a comprehensive examination, especially the abdominal examination.

Above we have introduced the normal value of ovarian size. Now, for the question of whether it is normal for the right ovary to enlarge, everyone should have a clear answer in their mind. For female friends, as long as the size of the ovaries is within the normal range, it will not affect the health of our body. Here we would like to remind female friends that they must go for regular gynecological examinations so that they can know if there are any problems with their bodies.
