Correct knowledge of the disease can help you eliminate the fear of ovarian cancer

In daily life, women have a strong fear of ovarian cancer and think it is an incurable disease. They often have a negative attitude while actively taking preventive measures. This is also wrong. Many ovarian tumors are not serious symptoms of ovarian cancer. Most benign tumors can be effectively prevented from becoming cancerous if they are diagnosed and treated in time.

Ovarian follicular cysts are formed when the follicles are immature or mature but do not ovulate, and fluid is retained in the follicles. The diameter of this cyst is generally no more than 5 cm. Most patients have no symptoms. A few patients may have a feeling of heaviness in the lower abdomen and menstrual disorders, which often disappear on their own after a few weeks.

Ovarian corpus luteum cyst is also a common disease. It is caused by the liquefaction of hematoma during the formation of corpus luteum. Its diameter is usually less than 3 cm. Such patients may have delayed menstruation or continuous bleeding and abdominal pain. Ovarian tumors are often found when they seek medical treatment due to these symptoms. After pregnancy, the corpus luteum can also enlarge to form ovarian tumors, which usually disappear on their own after 3 months of pregnancy.

Ovarian lutein cysts are less common than the previous two types and are only seen in hydatidiform mole. They are caused by excessive proliferation of the villous epithelium and excessive luteinization. There are many ovarian tumors of this type, and they vary in size. They often occur on both sides, and the diameter of the largest ones can exceed 10 cm. In this case, surgery is not necessary (except for those with complications). After the hydatidiform mole is expelled, the cysts can gradually shrink and disappear naturally after a few weeks or months. In some patients, after the hydatidiform mole is expelled, the cysts will increase for a period of time, but they will eventually disappear.

The above are several common benign ovarian tumors. I hope that readers can eliminate their fear of ovarian cancer, correctly judge the type of ovarian tumor, and build confidence in treating the disease in order to achieve the best treatment effect.
