What Are Ovarian Cysts?
Ovarian cysts are fluid-filled sacs that form on or inside the ovaries. Many cysts are small, cause no symptoms, and resolve on their own. However, some may grow larger, rupture, or twist (torsion), leading to pain or serious health risks. Because cysts vary widely in type and severity, professional evaluation is essential for proper management.
Common Symptoms of Ovarian Cysts
While many ovarian cysts are silent, symptoms may include:
- Pelvic pain, particularly on one side
- Bloating or a feeling of fullness
- Pain during intercourse
- Changes in menstrual cycles
- Frequent urination or difficulty emptying the bladder
If you experience sudden, severe pelvic pain or symptoms of faintness, seek medical attention immediately, as it could indicate a cyst complication.
Diagnosis and Treatment Options
At our Gangnam clinic, we use advanced pelvic ultrasounds and diagnostic tests to accurately assess ovarian cysts. Based on the size, type, and symptoms, treatment options may include:
- Watchful waiting with regular monitoring for small, symptom-free cysts
- Hormonal therapy (birth control pills) to prevent future cysts
- Minimally invasive surgery (laparoscopy) to remove large, persistent, or painful cysts
- Immediate surgical intervention for ruptured or twisted cysts
Our goal is to protect your ovarian health and fertility while providing the least invasive and most effective treatment.
