What Are Ovarian Cysts And Are They Serious ?
Ovarian cysts are basically dysfunctional follicles on the ovary. A follicles develops as part of the monthly ovulation process and preempts the release of an egg. The follicle will develop on the surface of the ovary and can best be described as a fluid filled sac. During ovulation it releases an egg and shrinks back into the ovarian tissue.
The dysfunctional follicle does not release an egg and consequently does not shrink back into the ovarian tissue. Over time it can grow to become quite large. A follicle that is larger than 2 cm in diameter is regarded as an ovarian cyst.
Even cysts of this size can shrink away over time. In fact most dysfunctional follicles and cysts will shrink away but some do not and can result in bleeding and pain in the pelvic area. Cysts that are left to develop can get very large and can even twist the ovaries. The damage caused by sever cysts can even lead to infertility due to these reasons.
So Ovarian cysts, in very small cases can be very serious. They can even be the prelude to cancer in very rare cases.
So with this in mind, it always makes sense to get checked for ovarian cysts. This can be because you feel pain in that area or just part of a yearly check up. It also makes sense to limit the chances of dysfunctional follicles and Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) occurring.
The best way to do this is to use a holistic approach. This is the best preventative measure you can take as the true causes of cysts and PCOS are varied.
