Will an ovarian mass go away on its own?

Ovarian mass is a relatively common manifestation of tumor. If such symptoms occur, you should go to the hospital for examination in time. First, you need to see whether the ovarian mass is physiological or pathological, and distinguish whether it is a benign mass or a malignant mass. Then, you can determine the cause before you can provide clear treatment. For benign physiological masses, you should do a good job of reexamination and follow-up.

1. See whether it is physiological or pathological

Whether an ovarian mass will disappear on its own depends on the individual. After an ovarian mass occurs, the nature of the mass must be confirmed first to see whether it is physiological or pathological. If it is a physiological ovarian mass, surgical treatment is generally not required and it will disappear on its own. However, for a pathological ovarian mass, surgical treatment is generally required. This type of patient will not disappear on its own. If it is not treated in time, the mass will not disappear but will further worsen and develop.

2. Divided into benign, malignant and borderline

Ovarian masses are divided into three types: benign, malignant and borderline. Therefore, not all ovarian masses require surgical treatment. Generally speaking, benign ovarian masses of about three centimeters can disappear on their own, but close observation is required. If the mass shrinks or does not increase in size within two months, it will often disappear on its own after a period of time. If it increases in size, surgical treatment should be taken in time. But do not blindly choose surgical treatment. The functional and tumorous nature must be further diagnosed and different methods must be adopted for treatment.

3. Seek medical attention promptly and follow up

Will ovarian masses disappear on their own? This question cannot be generalized. Some ovarian masses can disappear on their own, while some ovarian masses require surgical treatment to disappear. Whether or not a mass will disappear on its own depends on the actual situation of the patient. The relevant content has been introduced in detail above, and I hope it can help everyone.
