Four major symptoms "accused" of ovarian cysts

　　Ovarian cysts are not obvious in the early stages clinical manifestations, patients often suffer from other disease Good at medical treatment Gynecology It was discovered during inspection. Later, as the tumor grows, the patient will feel it. The symptoms and signs vary depending on the nature, size, development, and presence or absence of secondary degeneration or complications of the tumor.

　　lower abdomen swelling and pain It is the initial symptom before the patient touches the lower abdominal mass. Due to the weight of the tumor itself and the influence of intestinal peristalsis and body position changes, the tumor moves in the pelvic cavity and involves its pedicle and infundibular pelvic ligament, causing the patient to have a feeling of swelling and falling in the lower abdomen or iliac fossa.

　　Abdominal thickening and intra-abdominal masses are the most common complaints. The patient notices that his clothes or belt are too tight and just notices that the abdomen is enlarged, or he feels it accidentally in the morning, so he presses the abdomen and finds a mass in the abdomen, plus abdominal distension and discomfort.

　　stomach ache If the tumor has no complications, there is little pain. Therefore, when patients with ovarian tumors feel abdominal pain, especially if it occurs suddenly, it is often due to the twisting of the tumor pedicle, or occasionally due to tumor rupture, bleeding or infection. In addition, malignant cysts often cause abdominal pain and leg pain, and the pain often causes patients to seek emergency treatment.

　　Menstrual disorders generally affect the ovaries, or even bilateral ovarian cysts, because they do not destroy all normal ovarian tissue, so most of them will not cause menstrual disorders. some Uterus Bleeding is not endocrine, or may be caused by ovarian tumors that change the pelvic blood vessel distribution, causing endometrial congestion; or it may be caused by direct metastasis of malignant ovarian tumors to the endometrium. Menstrual disorders caused by endocrine tumors are often combined with other secretory effects.

　　Ovarian tumors with huge compression symptoms can cause dyspnea and palpitations due to compression of the diaphragm. Patients with ovarian tumors combined with large amounts of ascites can also cause such symptoms; however, the dyspnea of ​​some patients with ovarian tumors is caused by pleural effusion on one or both sides; and often combined with ascites, forming the so-called Meigs syndrome.

　　Huge benign ovarian cysts fill the entire abdominal cavity, increase intra-abdominal pressure, affect the venous return of the lower limbs, and can lead to edema of the abdominal wall and bilateral lower limbs; while malignant ovarian cysts fixed in the pelvis compress the iliac veins, often causing edema of one lower limb. Pressure on the pelvic and abdominal organs may lead to difficulty in urinating, urinary retention, urgency or difficulty in defecation.
