What Are Ovarian Cysts?

Ovarian cysts are fluid filled sacs that develop on or inside an ovary. They are extremely common. Most women develop at least one cyst during their reproductive years without ever knowing it.

Functional cysts form as part of the normal menstrual cycle and usually disappear within a few weeks. Other types include dermoid cysts, endometriomas, and cystadenomas, which may require closer monitoring or treatment.

Symptoms to Watch For

Small cysts often cause no symptoms at all. Larger cysts may create a feeling of bloating, pelvic heaviness, or a dull ache on one side of the lower abdomen.

Sudden, sharp pelvic pain can indicate a cyst has ruptured or twisted (torsion). This is a medical emergency that requires immediate attention. Nausea, vomiting, and fever alongside pelvic pain should not be ignored.

How Ovarian Cysts Are Diagnosed

Pelvic ultrasound is the main tool for diagnosing ovarian cysts. It shows the size, shape, and content of the cyst, helping your doctor determine its type.

Blood tests, including CA 125, may be ordered to rule out more serious conditions. Your doctor considers your age, the cyst's characteristics, and your symptoms when deciding the next steps.

Treatment Approaches
