Что нельзя делать при наличии кисты яичника

An ovarian cyst is a fluid-filled sac that grows from the ovarian tissue. Cysts can come in various shapes, sizes, and structures. Ovarian growths can grow to quite impressive sizes—from 3-4 to 20-30 cm, and sometimes even larger. When we talk about cysts, we fear two complications. The first is torsion, and the second is rupture. Torsion occurs when the ovary, along with the cyst, twists around its axis. This disrupts the blood supply to the ovaries and the cyst itself. This can lead to irreversible ischemia, where the area lacking sufficient blood flow dies. Ovarian torsion is an absolute indication for hospitalization and medical care. This is most often surgical treatment. In most cases, we can untwist the uterine appendages and, if irreversible changes have not yet occurred, preserve the ovary. Cyst rupture is primarily a concern if the cyst is malignant, as the release of tumor cells into the abdominal cavity can worsen the prognosis. Cyst rupture can also lead to bleeding. Bleeding resulting from a cyst rupture requires immediate attention from a gynecological surgeon. The main factor contributing to the development of cyst torsion or rupture is increased abdominal pressure, which, in turn, occurs due to physical activity. According to statistics, the risk of ovarian rupture or torsion increases with cysts larger than 10 cm. For cysts smaller than 10 cm, the risk is less significant. If you have a large ovarian cyst, it may be worth limiting yourself to intense physical activity and sports. This doesn't mean you should completely avoid exercise, but it's still a good idea to be extra cautious. During your appointment, your gynecologist will recommend a detailed monitoring plan based on the cyst's characteristics if treatment is not indicated at the time of consultation. It's crucial to adhere to this plan, as cysts can grow and change their structure and shape, and it's crucial to make a timely treatment decision.
