Ovarian cysts during pregnancy need attention

Ovarian cyst detection during pregnancy requires attention. During pregnancy, it is necessary to pay close attention to the size, shape, echo and other changes of ovarian cysts by ultrasound and other means. Because changes in hormone levels during pregnancy may affect the development of cysts, continuous monitoring can help to detect possible problems in time, such as rapid enlargement, rupture, torsion and other abnormalities. Second, to comprehensively consider the specific circumstances of cysts, to determine whether it will cause adverse effects on the pregnancy process, such as whether it will compress the uterus to affect fetal development, whether it will increase the risk of abortion, premature birth, etc. If there is a greater risk, doctors need to carefully evaluate and formulate appropriate treatment plans. In general, smaller and asymptomatic cysts may not require special treatment, mainly observation. However, if the cyst is large or associated complications occur, such as rupture, torsion, severe abdominal pain, etc., surgery may be required depending on the specific gestational age and the overall condition of the pregnant woman. The timing and method of surgery should weigh the advantages and disadvantages to the pregnant woman and the fetus. Doctors should explain in detail to pregnant women and their families the possible risks of ovarian cysts during pregnancy, including the manifestations of cyst-related complications and the potential impact on pregnancy outcomes, so that pregnant women and their families can fully understand the situation and actively cooperate with treatment and monitoring.
