What should I do if I have ovarian cysts during menopause? First, know what the nature of the ovarian cysts is.

Female patients should not panic when they encounter ovarian cysts during menopause. They should first find out the cause of the disease and see what type it is. Because ovarian cysts may develop into malignant tumors, they must be treated as soon as possible. Surgical treatment can help patients solve ovarian cysts and minimize the physical and mental harm caused by ovarian cysts to female patients.

Many people miss the opportunity to treat ovarian cysts because they don’t know much about the disease. Therefore, timely treatment can protect the patient’s life safety. However, before treatment, patients need to know the nature of their ovarian cysts so that when they go to the doctor, they can prescribe the right medicine. So what should we do with menopausal ovarian cysts?
If the ovarian cyst is benign, then generally, the doctor will recommend that the patient remove the ovarian tumor on the affected side. However, during the operation, the doctor must first check the specific condition of the patient's opposite ovary. If there is also a cyst on the opposite side, then the opposite side must also be removed, and a detailed pathological examination must be performed. However, the disadvantage of this treatment method is that it is prone to recurrence.
If the ovarian cyst is malignant, the patient is generally advised to undergo surgery first. The scope of the surgery must be wide, usually the entire uterus must be removed, and chemotherapy and radiotherapy must be received after the surgery.
The radical surgery for menopausal ovarian cysts is a total hysterectomy and bilateral adnexectomy. Patients should know that these two surgeries will no longer preserve the normal function of the ovaries of female patients. Generally speaking, if the adhesion of patients is serious and it is difficult to perform a total hysterectomy, a subtotal hysterectomy or bilateral ovarian removal should be performed. Patients can also choose to undergo conservative surgery for ovarian cysts.
The ovaries are very important organs in women, so they should be well protected. Attention should be paid to diet, hygiene, and daily habits. However, patients with ovarian cysts do not need to be afraid, because the current medical technology level is constantly improving. As long as timely detection and timely treatment are given, the body can recover quickly.
In daily life, patients should strengthen physical exercise and improve their physique. Sweat can remove acid from the body, which can effectively prevent ovarian cysts. Women should also pay attention to not eating salty or spicy food, and should focus on light, protein-rich food. Women should have a gynecological examination every six months or a year to eliminate the cause of the disease in time. Regular census can not only prevent ovarian cysts, but also prevent other gynecological diseases early, which is of great effect.
