Ovarian Cyst

What Is Ovarian Cyst ?

The ovaries are part of the female reproductive system and are located in the lower abdomen on both sides of the uterus. Women have two ovaries that produce eggs as well as the hormones estrogen and progesterone, responsible for her menses.

Sometimes, a fluid-filled sac called a cyst can develop on one of the ovaries. Many women will develop at least one cyst during their lifetime, which can be normal. In most cases, cysts are painless and cause no symptoms or signs.

Size of Ovarian Cyst normally ranges from 2-3 cms in diameter. Cysts are considered to be large when they are bigger than 5cm and there are giant cysts which are bigger than 15 cm, which needs ovarian cyst removal surgery. Sebaceous cysts are noncancerous cysts of the skin.

When to visit a Cyst Surgeon or Gynaecologist?

Why do you have all these symptoms in ovarian cysts?

During a woman’s menstrual cycle, an egg grows in a sac called as a follicle, which is located inside the ovaries. In most cases, this follicle or sac breaks open and releases an egg. But if the follicle doesn’t break open, the fluid inside the follicle can form a cyst in the ovary.

Most ovarian cysts are benign and naturally go away on their own without treatment. But in a rare case, your doctor may detect a cancerous ovarian cystic mass during a routine examination.

Ovarian torsion is another rare complication of ovarian cysts. This is when a large cyst causes an ovary to twist or move from its original position. Blood supply to the ovary is cut off, and if not treated, it can cause damage to the ovarian tissue and loss of ovarian function.

Ruptured ovarian cysts, which are also rare, can cause intense pain and internal bleeding and life threatening complications.

Frequently Asked Questions

Ovarian Cystectomy is risk-free. However, as with any surgical process, there are risks. Some possible complications are as follows:

  • Infection.
  • Irritation at the location of the incision.
  • Injury to surrounding tissues, as well as to your ovary or fallopian tube.
  • Bleeding.
  • Anesthesia-induced allergic response.
  • Blood clots.
  • After treatment, the cyst reappears.
  • Having one or both ovaries removed (oophorectomy).

If you’ve previously had surgery on your pelvic organs or abdominal region, you may be more vulnerable to complications. Other factors, such as smoking, diabetes, or obesity, may also increase your chance of complications.

 

You may be able to go home after a laparoscopic cystectomy the next day. You may need to remain overnight if you had open surgery.

Your surgeon will provide you with precise post-procedure instructions like:

  • When you are able to wash or bathe.
  • How to look after your wound.
  • What changes you’ll need to make to your regular routines.
  • When should be your follow-up visit.
  • How much vaginal bleeding or other symptoms you should anticipate while recovering.
  • What medicines are available to treat pain and discomfort.
  • When you can have sex.
  • When can you resume work.

With each person, the length of recovery varies. You should avoid placing unnecessary strain or pressure on your abdomen after surgery. After a laparoscopic cystectomy, you should be able to resume your normal routines, such as returning to work, within one to three weeks. You should also avoid physical exercise for at least one week after a laparoscopic procedure and up to six weeks after a laparotomy. Your recovery time may be up to eight weeks if your surgeon conducts an open cystectomy. All post-operative directions, including when to take pain medications, follow-up appointments, and monitoring their incision for symptoms of infection, should be followed.

Foods that are high in nutrients that aid in healing after ovarian cystectomy include:

Green vegetables and fruits: Eating a lot of green vegetables after ovarian cyst surgery enhances digestion and immunity. Because these foods are high in vitamins, they can aid in the healing of the skin following surgery.

Iron-rich foods:  ovarian cyst surgery patients should consume beef, lamb, which are iron-rich meals.

Poultry and seafood: are high in protein, which helps to supplement and improve women’s health after surgery.

Foods high in Omega 3 and vitamin E: such as salmon and sesame oil, to help wounds heal rapidly.
