Ovarian cyst can be touched lying flat

Ovarian cysts are not always palpable when lying flat.

If the cyst is small, it is usually difficult to touch when lying flat. only when the cyst grows to a certain size, such as a large cystic mass, can it be felt through the abdomen when lying flat. At the same time, for people with thick abdominal fat, even if there is a certain size of ovarian cyst, it may not be easy to touch because of the fat barrier. And people with thin abdominal fat are relatively more likely to touch it.

In addition, the location of the cyst will also affect whether it can be touched. If the position is deep, it may not be easy to touch it on the body surface; If the position is relatively shallow, it is easier to be found.

Therefore, it is not possible to judge whether there is an ovarian cyst by simply relying on whether it can be touched when lying flat. If you suspect that there are ovarium-related problems, you should seek medical attention in time and make a clear diagnosis by professional examination methods such as ultrasound in order to take appropriate treatment measures. At the same time, regular gynecological examinations are of great significance for early detection and prevention of gynecological diseases.
