Ovarian Cysts

Ovarian cysts are fluid-filled sacs in the ovaries that are usually benign but can cause pain or irregular cycles. Most cysts resolve on their own, but some require monitoring or surgical intervention. Dr. Dipika Palit provides personalised care to manage cysts, alleviate symptoms, and preserve ovarian function for women planning pregnancy.

What Are Ovarian Cysts?

Ovarian cysts are fluid-filled sacs that form on the ovaries, often due to hormonal changes or ovarian dysfunction.

Procedure

Diagnosis is made via pelvic ultrasound. Small, asymptomatic cysts are monitored, while larger or symptomatic cysts may require laparoscopy or medication for management.

Why It Happens / Best Age / Treatment

Ovarian cysts are common in women of reproductive age, often linked to hormonal imbalance or ovulation issues. Treatment depends on size, type, and symptoms, ranging from observation to surgery.
