Ovarian cyst during ovulation

Cysts can be benign or malignant, so prompt treatment is very important for women with cysts. During ovulation, cysts may increase in size as the eggs mature, so if a woman is found to have a cyst during this period, it is recommended to seek medical attention promptly.

The size of the cyst is one of the important factors that influence treatment options. Generally speaking, if the cyst is small, it can be treated with medication. If the cyst is large, surgery may be needed. If the cyst is malignant, the ovaries may need to be removed altogether.

In addition to medication and surgery, there are other treatments such as radiation therapy and chemotherapy. These methods may reduce the size of the cyst, but they do not cure it.
