What causes enlarged ovaries?

The health of the ovaries has a great impact on women's bodies. Usually, it can cause severe lesions in the female reproductive system, causing great damage to women. There are many types of ovarian diseases. Among them, many women have experienced enlarged ovaries, which will affect their ability to become pregnant. Let's take a look at what enlarged ovaries are. I hope everyone can understand.

There are many reasons for ovarian enlargement, including inflammation and endocrine abnormalities, ovarian cysts, ovarian endometriosis, polycystic ovary syndrome, etc.

Enlarged ovaries do not mean that a woman has a gynecological disease, nor does it mean that a woman has a sexually transmitted disease. Here we need to dispel a misunderstanding. Not all gynecological diseases are caused by unclean sexual behavior, and enlarged ovaries cannot be considered a disease. If you are told that your ovaries are enlarged, don't panic because a woman's left and right ovaries are generally not the same size.

If you have the following symptoms, you need to pay attention. For example, if women often have discomfort on one side of their lower abdomen, it is easy to confuse it with appendicitis or other gastrointestinal diseases. Therefore, it is necessary to combine the women's menstrual situation. If the discomfort on one side is accompanied by irregular menstruation, it is necessary to suspect whether she has adnexitis, which is caused by constant stimulation of inflammation. If a woman has irregular menstruation, is overweight, and has more body hair, she often has polycystic ovary syndrome. Such patients are often diagnosed with the disease because of infertility when they go to the hospital for examination.

The above is a brief introduction to what causes enlarged ovaries. When you feel unwell, you must go to a regular medical institution to consult a doctor. Don’t let your imagination run wild and put unnecessary mental burden on yourself. Don’t take therapeutic drugs without a diagnosis. If there is no problem with our endocrine system, but we accidentally take drugs to treat endocrine disorders, our originally good endocrine condition may become worse.
