Hearing the words “ovarian cyst” on a scan report can be unsettling, especially when you are not sure whether it needs treatment at all. At Vertex Clinics, we offer careful evaluation and personalised ovarian cyst treatment in Salunke Vihar, Kondhwa , beginning with a clear explanation of what your scan shows and what it means for you. Most ovarian cysts are harmless, and our job is to tell apart those that only need watching from those that need action, so that you receive neither too little nor too much care.
An ovarian cyst is a fluid-filled sac that forms on or inside an ovary.
Cysts are very common and can appear at any age, most often during the reproductive years. Many are found by chance during a scan done for another reason.
Ovarian cysts are broadly divided into functional cysts, which are linked to the monthly cycle and usually go away on their own, and other types, such as dermoid cysts, endometriomas and cystadenomas, which may need closer follow-up or treatment.
Polycystic ovaries seen in PCOS are not the same as true ovarian cysts. They are small immature follicles.
Many ovarian cysts cause no symptoms, but larger ones may cause pelvic or lower abdominal pain, bloating, a feeling of fullness, pain during intercourse, changes in periods, or frequent urination.
Symptoms often depend on the cyst’s size and position, and sometimes on whether it has bled or twisted.
Seek immediate medical help for sudden severe pelvic pain, especially on one side, particularly with vomiting, fever, dizziness or fainting.
These can be signs of a cyst that has twisted (torsion), burst (rupture) or bled, which may need emergency treatment to protect the ovary and your health. Please do not wait for a routine appointment.
Diagnosis starts with your history and a pelvic examination, followed by an ultrasound scan, which shows the cyst’s size, shape and contents.
Our evaluation may include:
No single test provides all the answers, so we look at the whole picture.
The vast majority of ovarian cysts, particularly in women who are still having periods, are benign (non-cancerous).
The chance of a worrying cyst is higher after menopause, or when a scan shows solid areas, thick walls or unusual blood flow. A raised CA-125 blood level does not always mean cancer, because it can rise with endometriosis, fibroids, periods or infection. We assess every cyst carefully and arrange further evaluation when anything looks unusual.
No. Small, simple cysts that cause no trouble are often just watched, with a repeat scan after some weeks, since many shrink or disappear on their own.
Treatment is considered if a cyst is large, persistent, growing, causing pain, looks complex on the scan or occurs after menopause.
Treatment depends on the type and size of the cyst, your symptoms, age and plans for pregnancy, and may include observation, medicines or surgery.
Our approach to Ovarian Cyst Treatment includes:
Hormonal pills prevent new functional cysts in some women, but they have not been shown to make an existing cyst disappear faster. We explain the options and decide together with you.
