What are the common causes of ovarian cysts?

In our lives, we find that more and more female friends choose to fight for their careers instead of sticking to the old ways and staying at home to take care of their husbands and children. In today's cruel society, it is a good idea to become an independent woman. However, in the pursuit of life value, we must not ignore our health status, especially the health of our ovaries.

Ovarian cysts are a type of ovarian tumor in a broad sense. They can occur in people of all ages, but are most common in those aged 20 to 50 years. Ovarian tumors are common tumors of the female reproductive system and have various properties and morphologies, namely: unilateral or bilateral, cystic or solid, benign or malignant, among which cystic ones are more common and have a certain proportion of malignant ones.

Surgical treatment: The treatment of ovarian cysts depends on factors such as the patient's age, whether it is malignant, the location, volume, size, growth rate of the cyst, whether the reproductive function is preserved, and the patient's subjective wishes.

1. Surgical treatment of benign ovarian cysts

(1) Ovarian cystectomy: This procedure is often used in young patients, especially premenopausal patients, while preserving normal ovarian tissue as much as possible.

(2) Salpingo-oophorectomy: Older patients (over 45 years old) or postmenopausal patients can undergo unilateral or bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy. It is worth noting that in the surgical treatment of larger ovarian cysts, the size of the incision should be ignored and complete resection is preferred to avoid breaking the patient's pulse and allowing the contents to spill into the abdominal cavity or incision. During the operation, attention should be paid to the rapid changes in abdominal pressure that cause changes in the patient's pulse, breathing, and blood pressure. When necessary, infusion or blood transfusion, oxygen supply should be accelerated, and early detection of acute gastric dilatation, paralytic intestinal obstruction, and the resulting water and electrolyte imbalance should be prevented.

2. Surgical treatment of malignant ovarian cysts

Most patients are in the late stage when they seek medical treatment, so every effort should be made to remove the primary cyst and any visible pelvic and abdominal metastases.

I wonder if you have a clear understanding of the causes of ovarian cysts after learning the above. In our lives, we never stop striving to achieve the height of our dreams, but we must also recognize what is most important in life. Only with health can you achieve ultimate happiness.
