The occurrence of ovarian cysts not only affects the normal life and work of patients, but also seriously affects their health. Immediate treatment is necessary after illness.
Does ovarian cyst affect fertility
Does ovarian cyst affect fertility? Ovarian cysts may affect fertility. The enlargement or degeneration of ovarian cysts may affect ovarian ovulation function, prevent normal sperm and egg binding, affect fertility, and lead to female infertility. When an ovarian cyst grows to a certain size, it may rupture, and in severe cases, it can endanger the life of women. What are the hazards of ovarian cysts? In addition to causing infertility, ovarian cysts can also cause dystocia, miscarriage, or premature birth, causing adverse effects on the fetus and pregnant women.
In addition, if it is a malignant ovarian tumor, early detection and timely treatment will lead to much better recovery, and the possibility of preserving reproductive function will also increase; But if it progresses to the late stage, it is necessary to remove the entire uterus and double appendages, and pregnancy and childbirth are also out of the question. At present, the indicators that can predict the malignancy of ovarian tumors include CA125, CA199, HE4, CEA, AFP, etc. These tumor markers can help determine the malignancy of ovarian cysts and provide timely treatment.
The hazards of ovarian cysts
1. Lower abdominal pain: Due to the weight of the tumor itself and the influence of intestinal peristalsis and postural changes, cysts move within the pelvis, engulfing the stem and pelvic infundibulum ligaments, causing swelling, falling, and pain in the patient's lower abdomen. However, it is easily mistaken for ordinary gynecological inflammation and gastroenteritis.
2. Causes edema and affects daily life: In addition to loss of appetite, weight loss, and abdominal distension, ovarian cyst patients may also cause vomiting, fever, and abdominal pain. Later on, abdominal and limb edema may occur.
3. Premature facial aging in women: Ovarian cysts can also cause endocrine disorders and premature aging in women.
4. Causes of miscarriage and dystocia: Premature delivery of ovarian cysts may cause miscarriage, interruption of pregnancy can easily cause torsion of the ovarian cyst stem, and in late pregnancy, if the torsion is large, it may cause abnormal fetal position and block the birth canal for dystocia.
5. Infertility: Early ovarian cysts, abdominal pain, increased vaginal discharge, yellow vaginal discharge, and menstrual abnormalities. When cysts affect hormone production, symptoms such as irregular vaginal bleeding or increased hair may occur. In the middle and late stages, patients may experience symptoms such as abdominal pain, bloating, frequent urination, and pain. If left untreated, it can ultimately lead to infertility.
