Question 1

I had an ultrasound yesterday that showed a right ovarian mass measuring 43.5x20.7mm with two hemorrhagic cysts (15.0x12.0mm and 9.2x8.9mm) and no dominant follicle. The left ovary is normal. I'm really worried do I need surgery to remove the cysts or can they be treated with medication?

Accepted Answer

It's understandable to be worried about the findings from your ultrasound. Hemorrhagic ovarian cysts are usually benign, but some may need treatment, including surgery. The size and any associated symptoms will help determine the best course of action.

Question 2

I'm really worried after getting an ultrasound report which says my uterus is bulky and there's a hypoechoicovoid solid mass in the posterior uterine wall that's quite large at 42x31mm. There's also another similar mass, though smaller, about 16x15mm, in the anterior uterine wall. Could you explain what this means, and should I be concerned about these masses? What might this indicate about my health?

Accepted Answer

The ultrasound findings indicate that the uterus is bulky and contains two solid masses. One mass, measuring 4231 mm, is located in the posterior uterine wall, while another smaller mass of 1615 mm is found in the anterior uterine wall. These masses may require further evaluation by your doctor to determine their nature and appropriate management.

Question 3

1. I've been diagnosed with a 5.6mm x 4.2mm dermoid cyst on my right ovary what actually causes these cysts to form in the body? I've heard they can contain weird things like teeth or hair how does that even happen? 
 
 2. Is surgery the only way to treat a dermoid cyst, or can it be managed with alternatives like yoga, Ayurveda, or homeopathy? I'd really prefer to avoid surgery if possible. 
 
 3. It's called a monster cyst because it might have tissues like bone or nails how does something like that develop inside the body on its own?

Accepted Answer

Surgery s the only treatment option for a dermoid cyst..get it removed laparoscopically
