Ovarian Cyst & Fibroid Treatment

Ovarian cysts and uterine fibroid are common gynecological conditions that affect many women. They can cause a variety of symptoms or remain asymptomatic, depending on their size, type, and location. Treatments are personalized to address the patient’s symptoms, reproductive plans, and overall health.

Ovarian Cysts

Ovarian cysts are fluid-filled sacs that develop in or on the ovaries.

Symptoms:

• Lower abdominal pain or bloating.
• Irregular periods.
• Pain during intercourse or bowel movements.
• Nausea or vomiting (in severe cases).
• Complications like rupture or ovarian torsion.

Uterine Fibroids

Fibroids are non-cancerous growths in the uterus, also known as leiomyomas. They can vary in size, number, and location.

Types of Fibroids:

• Submucosal: Inside the uterine cavity.
• Intramural: Within the uterine wall.
• Subserosal: On the outer surface of the uterus.
• Pedunculated: Attached by a stalk to the uterine wall.

Symptoms:

• Heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding.
• Pelvic pain or pressure.
• Frequent urination or difficulty emptying the bladder.
• Constipation.
• Infertility or recurrent pregnancy loss (in some cases).

Why Seek Treatment?

Untreated ovarian cysts and fibroids can lead to complications like torsion, rupture, excessive bleeding, infertility, or rarely, malignant transformation. Early diagnosis and appropriate treatment ensure better outcomes and an improved quality of life.
