subject: What Is An Ovarian Cyst? [print this page]


An ovarian cyst is nothing but an accumulation of liquid in a thin layer wall that is in the ovary. It can be of varied sizes ranging from a resin to an apple. It has an effect on women ranging in all age groups. However, most commonly it is in women during the time they attain maturity.

A cyst on ovary

can sometimes not be complex and have nothing that draws attention. It can be of many types namely functional cyst, Graafian follicle cyst, corpus leteum cyst, hemorrhagic cyst, dermoid cyst, endometrioid cyst, and pathological cyst.

When the cyst on ovary

reaches a stage when a person should give it medical attention, the person should feel symptoms like sharp discomforting lower abdominal pain. The pain may stay for long durations of time or be fluctuating in nature. The person may experience immense pain after their menstrual period. Periods in irregular times, improper bleeding, unease in urination, nausea and vomiting are also some of the commonly found symptoms. Most striking symptom is unusual and excessive hair growth on the persons body and facial hair.

Nowadays, the most commonly used method for detection of cyst on ovary

is the ultrasound diagnosis or the CT scan. The medication to follow as per the recommendations always depends on the size of the cyst. Initially, pain relievers are there for the person to ease the pain. After that, a hot water bath just applied to the lower abdomen. Regular dosages of externally injected hormonal medication often hamper the regular menstrual cycle.

Generally, situations are under control within a period of two to three weeks. However, failing which there is a danger of ovarian cancer that may require higher degree of medical expertise like biopsy to deal with. I wish luck to all the women & suggest them to go for natural cure for cyst on ovary.
