What are Ovarian Cysts, and how can Garden OB/GYN in New York City W51st Street help?
Garden OB/GYN in New York City W51st Street provides expert treatment for ovarian cysts. Ovarian cysts are fluid-filled sacs that are found in the ovaries and can be detected on a pelvic ultrasound.
An ovarian cyst is a fluid-filled sac that develops inside an ovary. These cysts are very common and usually harmless because they naturally disappear. Most ovarian cysts are benign, although it’s possible for cysts that don’t go away to become cancerous.
If your ovarian cysts are small, you may not have any symptoms. However if they are large you will have symptoms.
Ovarian cysts can become so large that they rupture or affect the shape of the ovary. When that happens, you’ll have sudden pain and possibly a fever, vomiting, and dizziness. Come to Garden OB/GYN in New York City W51st Street today to have them evaluated if they cause any symptoms.
Your doctor at Garden OB/GYN in New York City W51st Street may monitor cysts that are small and don’t cause symptoms. When they get too large, your doctor may prescribe a medication that prevents future cysts from forming or helps to shrink existing cysts. When your symptoms are severe or your cysts continue to enlarge, you may need minimally invasive surgery to remove the cysts. An uncommon type of ovarian cyst called an endometrioma often requires surgery because these cysts can destroy the ovary and increase your risk for cancer.
