Why do you get ovarian chocolate cysts?

What is ovarian chocolate cyst? At first glance at this disease, many women can't help but ask why it is called such a unique name as chocolate cyst? Is there any special reason? Some female friends even ask if they get ovarian chocolate cyst because they eat too much chocolate? Is this true? Why do people get ovarian chocolate cyst? The following is a detailed introduction.

1. Physiological reasons: Under normal circumstances, the endometrium of a woman grows in the uterine cavity. With the arrival of the monthly menstrual period, it will peel off and start to thicken and grow again. However, since the endometrium begins to grow in the ovaries of women, this part of the endometrium does not leave the ovaries during the menstrual period, but accumulates in the ovaries. As the endometrium growing in the ovaries continues to thicken, the accumulated endometrium will become more and more, causing cysts in the ovaries.

Second, endocrine factors: This factor is a common cause of ovarian cysts. Although the ovaries are small, they are important organs that produce eggs and ovulate, secrete hormones, and balance endocrines. They often occur during the reproductive age when endocrines are vigorous. Therefore, it is believed to be related to endocrine disorders. In addition, if you get angry during your period, your period will be gone, causing the waste to not be discharged, and cysts to form in the ovaries.

3. Childbirth, multiple abortions, etc.: Chocolate cysts are mainly caused by the endometrial fragments shed from the uterine wall during menstruation. Due to poor drainage, they cannot be completely discharged from the vagina, and a small amount of them flow back into the pelvic cavity through the fallopian tubes. Anything that can affect the outflow of menstrual blood from the vagina, including vaginal atresia, narrow cervical opening, retroverted uterus, adhesion of cervical opening after multiple artificial abortions, and sexual intercourse during menstruation, can promote the occurrence of chocolate cysts.

4. Frequent sexual life: Frequent sexual life is also an important cause of ovarian chocolate cysts. It usually occurs in adolescent girls or menopausal women, which has a lot to do with their frequent sexual life.

We know that ovarian chocolate cysts are very harmful, and the most fatal is that they cause dysmenorrhea and female infertility. At present, the more effective technology for treating chocolate cysts is laparoscopic minimally invasive surgery. All major gynecological hospitals should have this technology.
