Is chocolate cyst puncture painful?

Chocolate cysts are a type of endometriosis, which means that endometrial tissue appears outside the uterine cavity, that is, the endometrium appears in places where it should not appear. Endometriosis on the ovaries often forms cysts, and because the bleeding in the cysts accumulates over time and becomes like chocolate syrup, they are called "chocolate cysts." Whether surgery should be performed depends on the size and duration of the cyst. If the cyst is greater than or equal to 5 cm in diameter, or persists for two menstrual cycles or after puberty and menopause, surgery should be performed.

1. Avoid strenuous activities during menstruation: If you engage in dancing, gymnastics, swimming or diving during menstruation, it may cause menstrual blood to flow back and lead to endometriosis. Try to avoid strenuous activities during menstruation.

2. Oral contraceptives: Long-term use of contraceptives can inhibit ovulation, leading to endometrial atrophy and reduced menstruation, which can reduce the chance of menstrual blood and endometrial fragments flowing back into the abdominal cavity and avoid the occurrence of endometriosis.

3. Avoid artificial abortion as much as possible: Clinically, artificial abortion can promote the endometrium to enter the pelvic cavity through the fallopian tube, causing endometriosis. In recent years, with the gradual popularization of artificial abortion, the incidence of endometriosis has also increased.

Chocolate cyst is a uterine disease that mainly occurs outside the uterine cavity. If it is a large cyst, surgical removal is required. Avoiding strenuous movements during menstruation can effectively avoid chocolate cysts. Multiple miscarriages can also easily cause chocolate cysts. If you are not planning to have a baby, take safety measures to minimize harm.

Generally speaking, surgical treatment may cause more obvious damage to the patient's body, and the recovery period is relatively long, but puncture treatment will not feel pain during the treatment. Chocolate cysts will not feel pain during the puncture, but the patient may feel a little pain after the treatment.
