Chocolate cyst is a familiar gynecological disease with many causes. We need to recognize its harmfulness, especially in daily life, and take preventive measures.
Can Chocolate Cysts Get Pregnant
In the medical field, endometriosis is referred to as benign cancer. Pathologically, it is not a malignant tumor, but there is a behavior of malignant cancer, such as recurrence. In clinical practice, only laparoscopic surgery is performed, and without pregnancy or medication prevention, the recurrence rate is very high. Only ovarian preservation surgery is performed, and the recurrence rate is at least 60% (according to the literature). Recurrence is not uncommon. The patient should actually choose to conceive as soon as possible or use medication to prevent further increases based on her specific situation, age, fertility requirements, and the specific circumstances of her surgery.
Generally speaking, we advocate surgical treatment for patients with clear cysts greater than 5 centimeters in medical practice. The effectiveness of medication treatment is not good. Secondly, if there is a 5-centimeter chocolate cyst, it will definitely have an impact on pregnancy. You expected pregnancy to have a therapeutic effect on the recurrence of endometriosis, but in the past, things went against your wishes. You didn't get pregnant while waiting, and the cyst grew larger and larger.
Hazards of chocolate cysts
1. Causing abnormal menstruation in women: Many women experience symptoms of irregular menstruation, and some also experience abdominal pain, sexual intercourse pain, and other symptoms, which can have a significant impact on women. Because chocolate cysts cause the rupture of cysts, it can cause blood accumulation in the pelvic cavity, causing severe abdominal pain. Therefore, women must promptly treat the disease.
2. Causing diffuse peritonitis: Due to untimely treatment in women, the cyst ruptures, and small breaks may form adhesions with surrounding tissues. However, if the break is large, it may cause chocolate like fluid to flow into the abdominal cavity, stimulating the surrounding peritoneum, and causing diffuse peritonitis.
3. Fallopian tube blockage: Ovarian chocolate cysts may cause blockage of the female fallopian tubes, affect ovarian ovulation function, affect female fertility, and disrupt ovarian function, leading to menstrual irregularities. Therefore, women must pay full attention to it.
4. Causing pelvic organ adhesion: Delayed treatment of ovarian chocolate cysts leads to increased blood accumulation within the cyst. When pressure increases, it spontaneously ruptures and flows into the pelvic cavity, causing blood accumulation that stimulates the peritoneum and may cause pelvic organ adhesion.
