Bleeding Ovarian Cyst Requires Immediate Care
Any woman of childbearing age can have an ovarian cyst. Most cysts go away without causing any trouble. When a bleeding ovarian cyst occurs, however, immediate treatment, possible even surgery, is necessary.
In order to understand the treatment, it’s helpful to understand how ovarian cysts can form.
Ovarian cysts can occur as an aberration of the natural menstrual cycle. The walnut-sized ovaries are located on either side of the uterus. An ovum, or egg, ripens each month in one of the ovaries and is released from a small sac called a follicle.
Sometimes, the ovarian follicle doesn’t release an egg and seals itself off, or the follicle sac doesn’t dissolve as it normally would. In these cases the small sac fills with fluid and becomes a cyst. The first type, when an egg fails to release, is called a “functional cyst.” The second type of cyst, when the sac fails to dissolve, is called a “corpus luteum cyst.”
Ovarian cysts can be seen in an ultrasound image, looking like bubbles. Women of all ages can be affected by ovarian cysts, but they’re particularly prevalent in women of childbearing age. Most cysts have nothing to do with any disease and most are not cancerous.
Another type of ovarian cyst can form from a condition called endometriosis. This condition results when uterine tissue doesn’t discharge through the vagina in the monthly period, but instead moves to the ovaries. Endometriosis cysts often contain blood, which can cause extreme pain and inflammation in the peritoneum if they burst.
Any time a woman suspects she may have a bleeding ovarian cyst, she should consult her gynecologist immediately. A bleeding ovarian cyst can lead to a serious infection and shouldn’t be ignored
