What to do if you have ovarian cysts after egg retrieval

Ovarian cysts after egg retrieval are a very common disease in daily life. It not only causes great harm to the patient's physical health, but also seriously affects their normal life and work. People need to seek medical treatment in time when they find related symptoms and choose appropriate treatment methods according to their physical condition to recover health as soon as possible.

Symptoms of ovarian cysts

1. Physiological ovarian cyst

Physiological cysts may disappear on their own with the cyclical changes of the ovaries. Under normal circumstances, the ovaries are solid tissues. In rare cases, follicular cysts and corpus luteum cysts grow too rapidly, causing the ovarian tissue to be pulled and rupture and bleed. Because this blood has no outlet, it is wrapped in the ovary and forms a hematoma. But whether it is a cyst or a hematoma, it can gradually shrink and disappear on its own within a few months.

2. Pathological ovarian cysts

If an ovarian cyst does not shrink or even increases in size (greater than 6 cm in diameter) during follow-up, or if the cyst occurs in prepubertal girls or postmenopausal women, the possibility of an ovarian tumor should be suspected, and further auxiliary examinations or even surgery are often required for diagnosis and treatment. Ovarian tumors often cause dysmenorrhea, menstrual disorders, sexual pain and other symptoms, and even lead to infertility.

3 The ovaries are important organs for ovulation and secretion of gonadal hormones. Ovarian tumors often occur during the reproductive age. 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.
