When is the best time to check for ovarian cysts?

Ovarian cyst symptoms are a very common gynecological disease. If the symptoms of ovarian cysts are not treated and controlled in a timely manner, it may cause serious physical illness and even affect normal fertility and life safety. Therefore, we must pay attention to the maintenance and examination of the ovaries in normal times. So when is the best time to check for ovarian cysts? Let us introduce it below.

1. Avoid ovulation period

A woman's ovulation period is generally between two menstrual periods. Try to avoid this period so that the doctor can make a preliminary judgment on whether the cystic structure is a cyst or a follicle. At the same time, when ultrasound examination suggests the presence of ovarian cysts, it is best to recheck after a month and within one week after the menstruation ends, so that it can be determined whether it is a physiological cyst or a pathological cyst.

2. The 5th to 7th day of menstruation is the best

The incidence of ovarian cysts has a certain relationship with endocrine. Generally speaking, ovarian cysts should be checked on the 5th to 7th day of the menstrual period. This stage is the resting time of the ovaries. Ultrasound examinations at this time are generally more accurate. Therefore, if you want to further examine the ovarian cyst, you must grasp the examination time.

Because women have two ovaries, women of childbearing age usually release one follicle per month, and usually the left and right ovaries release ovulation alternately. When the follicle grows to about 20mm, it will be discharged naturally. If you do an ultrasound examination just before ovulation, the mature follicle can easily be confused with an ovarian cyst.

The above introduces the best time to check for ovarian cysts. The ovaries are a very important organ in women's body. Once a disease occurs, the consequences are very serious, so in normal times, we must pay special attention to maintenance. In addition, we must actively prevent the occurrence of some gynecological diseases, and if these diseases occur, we must receive effective treatment in a timely manner.
