What is the TCM treatment for ovarian cysts?

Ovarian cyst is a gynecological disease that modern women are very prone to, but ovarian cyst is a benign cyst that occurs in the female reproductive organs and generally occurs in women aged 20 to 50. More and more women will suffer from this disease, so how should ovarian cysts be treated? Next, let’s take a look at the Traditional Chinese Medicine treatment methods for ovarian cysts.

TCM treatment of ovarian cysts

"External treatment" avoids the defects of surgical removal of cysts, such as high cost, high risk, great pain, slow recovery, and susceptibility to infection. It also does not have the disadvantages of oral medications that can easily affect the functions of organs such as the liver and kidneys. It is truly a model of TCM treatment of cysts.

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that human beings are a unified whole and that all diseases are the result of an imbalance of yin and yang in the body. Any pathology of a local organ is related to poor circulation of Qi and blood throughout the body and dysfunction of the internal organs. Specifically speaking of ovarian cysts, since the ovaries are where the liver meridian passes, they have a close relationship with internal organs such as the liver and spleen, and the formation of cysts is caused by liver depression, qi stagnation, phlegm coagulation and blood stasis.

1. Menstrual disorders are common symptoms of right ovarian cysts. Generally, ovarian cysts, even bilateral ovarian cysts, do not cause menstrual disorders because they do not destroy all normal ovarian tissues. Some uterine bleeding is not endocrine in nature. It may be caused by ovarian tumors that change the pelvic blood vessel distribution, causing endometrial congestion; or it may be caused by ovarian malignant tumors directly metastasizing to the endometrium. Menstrual disorders caused by endocrine tumors are often combined with other secretory influences.

2. Symptoms of right ovarian cyst also include infertility. The ovaries are the place where eggs develop, mature, and are released, and the follicles at different stages are in the ovarian cortex.

The above is the relevant content about the Traditional Chinese Medicine treatment methods for ovarian cysts. Women with ovarian cysts should eat more alkaline foods, such as tomatoes and kelp, avoid smoking and drinking, avoid eating irritating foods, avoid going to crowded and noisy places, and maintain a good attitude.
