Ovarian Cyst Removal
There are two ovaries one on either side of your uterus (the womb), and their function is to develop eggs and produce female sex hormones. Ovarian cysts are fluid-filled sacs (pockets) that can occur inside or on the surface of the ovaries.
Ovarian cysts are quite common in women of childbearing age. You can develop a single cyst or many cysts and they can vary in size. Most ovarian cysts are harmless and don't cause any pain or discomfort. Some cysts, however, may cause a dull or sharp ache in the lower abdomen and pain during sexual intercourse. Surgery maybe recommended to:
- confirm a diagnosis of ovarian cysts and rule out ovarian cancer.
- remove cysts that could cause pain or infertility (because of twisting or bleeding).
- release pressure where, for example, large cysts are pressing on your bladder or other organs.
