What Are the Symptoms of an Ovarian Cyst Rupture?

Ovarian tumors are one of the common tumors of female reproductive organs. The incidence of ovarian cancer has been rising in recent years. Experts said that because the ovary is located in the deep part of the pelvis, it is relatively hidden, so once it is found to be cancerous, it is often in the advanced stage, so it is one of the very refractory malignancies. Its 5-year survival rate is difficult to exceed 40%.

Left ovarian cyst disease

Ovarian cyst

1. TCM treatment: Although TCM treatment is left

1. Ovarian cysts are a type

I. Ultrasound examination. Ultrasound examination of ovarian cysts can detect the location, size, shape and nature of the mass, suggesting that the tumor is cystic or solid, benign or malignant, and it is distinguished from other diseases. The coincidence rate of clinical diagnosis of ultrasonography was 90%. However, solid tumors with a diameter of 1 to 2 cm are difficult to detect.

Second, cervical mucus examination and vaginal cell examination, estrogen makes cervical mucus thin, long drawing, and the appearance of fern-like crystals, the more obvious and thicker fern-like crystals, suggesting that the effect of estrogen is more significant. If rows of ellipsoids are seen on the smear, it indicates that on the basis of estrogen action, it has been affected by progestin. Look at the percentage of cells in the table, middle, and bottom. The higher the percentage of cells in the surface, the higher the level of estrogen.

3. Basal body temperature detection. Basal body temperature refers to the body temperature measured when the body has not performed any activity after waking up for a long time. It is the body temperature when maintaining the basic life activity state. Because the body temperature center is extremely sensitive to progesterone, the corpus luteum forms after ovulation. Generally, the body temperature rises 2-3 days after ovulation, and a few rise on the day of ovulation. If there is no ovulation, the body temperature will continue to be basal body temperature.

4. Radiological diagnosis. Radiological diagnosis is assisted by plain abdominal radiography, intravenous pyelography, barium swallow examination, and lymphography.

5. Cytological examination. Through fornix puncture and aspiration of ascites for cytological examination, during laparoscopy or laparotomy, fluid can be examined at the same time in the uterine rectal depression, which has a higher accuracy rate for the diagnosis of malignant ovarian cysts. ^[1]

1. Premature aging : long-term untreated ovarian cysts will make women's endocrine disorders, dull faces, and enter the senile state in advance. The subsequent lack of blood, acne spots, thin yellow muscles, etc. make women patients unable to bear. .

2. Difficult fertility : The ovarian cyst will gradually become larger, affecting the combination of sperm and eggs, making it impossible to conceive normally, leading to infertility. Ovarian function gradually declines, menstruation ceases, there is no fresh cell flow in the ovary, egg survival rate is extremely low, sperm cannot land properly, and infertility is induced.

3, easy abortion : women with ovarian cysts in early pregnancy are more likely

Ovarian cystectomy, most of these patients without menstrual disorders, even with pregnancy, and some tumors are more prominent, then the affected side tubal oophorectomy is feasible.

Oviductal ovariectomy, one side ovarian cyst occurred in older (45 years old) patients with multiple ovarian cysts on one side or bilateral oophorectomy, patients with inadequate body conditions or severe inflammation often underwent whole uterus Resection, it is worth noting the surgical treatment of large ovarian cysts, regardless of the size of the incision, it is advisable to complete the removal, so as to avoid

The patient's pulse content overflows into the abdominal cavity or incision. During the operation, pay attention to the patient's pulse respiration, changes in blood pressure, if necessary, accelerate the infusion or blood transfusion, oxygen transfusion, and prevent the early detection of acute gastric dilatation, paralytic intestinal obstruction and the resulting Water and electrolyte imbalances and blood chemistry changes.

Attachments and total hysterectomy occur in one or both ovarian cysts in menopausal or menopausal women. The patient's overall condition is incompetent. It is advisable to perform bilateral attachment and total hysterectomy, but it will seriously affect endocrine disorders. .

2. Surgical treatment of malignant ovarian cysts, because patients have reached the advanced stage at the time of consultation, so every effort must be made to remove the primary cyst and the pelvic and abdominal metastases that can be seen. Malignant ovarian cysts often adhere to or infiltrate the uterus and appendages, and they are closely integrated with the pelvic peritoneum. Therefore, roll rug or dumplings are used to remove the uterus and tumor together with the pelvic peritoneum. Partial bowel resection, part bladder, ureterectomy. For malignant ovarian tumors with ascites, whether or not they are completely removed, it is advisable to leave a catheter in the abdominal cavity so as to inject an anti-cancer agent or radioactive colloidal gold or colloidal phosphorus into the abdominal cavity after surgery.

3. Surgical treatment of ovarian cyst complications.

The pedicle of the ovarian cyst is twisted, and analgesics are injected intramuscularly. Urgent surgery is required after diagnosis. If the patient is young, it is advisable to perform the resection of the affected side.

The ovarian cyst is ruptured, and an exploratory laparotomy should be performed as soon as possible. Because the contents of the cyst overflow into the abdominal cavity, whether it is benign or malignant, there is a possibility of implantation. Therefore, the abdominal cavity and the incision should be fully washed.

Ovarian cysts are complicated by infection. If anti-infection, drugs, and body wetness are not reduced for a period of time, or those with local symptoms are more serious, it is advisable to remove the tumor by laparotomy to clear the infection, and the symptoms often resolve quickly.

Ovarian cysts and peritoneal pre-adhesion, more common in giant ovarian cysts misdiagnosed as a large amount of ascites, who have repeatedly repeated abdominal puncture fluid or ovarian cyst infection.

1. The ovary is the place where the egg develops, matures, and is expelled. If a cyst occurs in the ovary, the diseased part loses the function of making the egg develop, mature, and expel, leading to infertility.

2. Some ovarian cysts containing endocrine function can produce certain corresponding hormones, interfere with the normal secretion and ovulation of ovarian hormones, and appear infertility.

3. The occurrence of ovarian cysts is related to high-cholesterol diet, ionizing radiation, and chemical substances. These adverse factors are also factors that cause infertility. Patients can have two symptoms under the same attack.

4. Larger ovarian cysts have a higher proportion of infertility, and bilateral cysts have a higher proportion of infertility. It is considered that due to more and larger ovarian lesions, it has lost the ability to effectively develop follicles and ovulate. Features.

1. Thickening of abdominal circumference, intra-abdominal mass

This is the most common phenomenon in patients. The patient noticed that his clothes or waistband seemed tight, only then he noticed that the abdomen was enlarged, or he happened to notice it in the morning, so he found that there was a mass in the abdomen by pressing the abdomen, and the bloating was uncomfortable.

Abdominal pain

If the tumor has no complications, it is rarely painful. Therefore, patients with ovarian tumors feel abdominal pain, especially in those who suddenly occur. The pedicles of multiple tumors are twisted, sometimes caused by rupture of the cyst, bleeding or infection. In addition, malignant cysts often cause abdominal pain and leg pain. Pain often causes patients to seek emergency treatment.

3. Menstrual disorders

One ovary or even two ovarian cysts do not cause menstrual disorders because they do not destroy all normal ovarian tissues. Some uterine bleeding is not endocrine, or caused by ovarian cysts that change the distribution of blood vessels in the pelvic cavity, causing endometrial congestion; or due to the direct transfer of ovarian cysts to the endometrium. Menstrual disorders due to endocrine tumors are often combined with other secretory effects.

4. Compression symptoms

Large ovarian cysts can cause dyspnea and palpitations due to compression of the diaphragm. People with ovarian cysts and a large amount of ascites can also cause this kind of symptoms; however, some patients with ovarian cysts have difficulty breathing due to one or both pleural effusions. And often incorporate ascites.

Chinese medicine believes that man is a unified whole, and the occurrence of all diseases is the result of imbalance of yin and yang inside the body. Any local organ lesions are related to dysfunction of qi and blood throughout the body and visceral dysfunction. Specific to ovarian cysts, because the ovary is the place where the liver passes, it has a close relationship with the organs such as liver and spleen, and the formation of cysts is also caused by liver stagnation and qi stagnation, and sputum coagulation and stasis. Therefore, in the treatment of ovarian cysts, traditional Chinese medicine will not simply prescribe medicines for the cysts, but will instead regulate the source of the disease, namely the liver and spleen.

The traditional treatment methods for ovarian cysts include conservative treatment and laparotomy. Conservative treatment has the characteristics of long treatment time, and the treatment has strict indications. Laparotomy is an effective means of saving lives. It can remove ovarian cysts and clear blood at the same time. However, this treatment is very traumatic, the abdominal incision is long, and it causes great damage to the patient's body. In recent years, laparoscopic technology has become more and more mature, and is widely used in the field of obstetrics and gynecology, so that the treatment of ovarian cysts has also changed from "great invasive" to "minimal invasive". Because of its small surgical trauma, less bleeding, short operation time, fast postoperative recovery, short hospital stay, almost no scarring in the abdomen, less pelvic adhesions, and slight tubal obstruction, it is easier to retain the tubal. Tissue coagulation wounds can prevent the exudation and deposition of cellulose and significantly improve the quality of life of patients after surgery. Welcomed by the majority of patients.

Four major symptoms of ovarian cysts

Ovarian cysts have no obvious clinical manifestations at an early stage, and patients are often found during gynecological examinations due to other medical conditions. In the future, as the tumor grows, the patient feels that its symptoms and signs vary depending on the nature, size, development, and whether there are secondary degeneration or complications of the tumor.

Lower abdominal pain is the initial symptom of the patient before touching the lower abdominal mass. Due to the weight of the tumor itself and the impact of intestinal peristalsis and body position changes, moving the tumor in the pelvic cavity involves the pedicle and the pelvic funnel ligament, so that the patient has a feeling of inflation and falling of the lower abdomen or iliac fossa.

Thickening of abdominal circumference, intra-abdominal mass

It is the most common phenomenon in the main complaint. The patient noticed that his clothes or belt seemed to be tight, only then he noticed that the abdomen was enlarged, or he felt it by chance in the morning, so he found that there was a mass in the abdomen by pressing the abdomen, and the bloating was uncomfortable.

stomach ache

Such as tumor without complications, rarely pain. Therefore, patients with ovarian tumors feel abdominal pain, especially if it occurs suddenly, and the pedicles of multiple tumors are twisted, sometimes caused by tumor rupture, bleeding or infection. In addition, malignant cysts often cause abdominal pain and leg pain. Pain often causes patients to seek emergency treatment.

Menstrual disorders

Generally, the ovaries and even bilateral ovarian cysts do not cause menstrual disorders because they do not damage all normal ovarian tissues. Some uterine bleeding is not endocrine, or caused by ovarian tumors that change the distribution of blood vessels in the pelvic cavity, causing endometrial congestion; or due to the direct metastasis of ovarian tumors to the endometrium. Menstrual disorders due to endocrine tumors are often combined with other secretory effects.

Compression symptoms

Large ovarian tumors can cause dyspnea and palpitations due to compression of the diaphragm. People with ovarian tumors with a large amount of ascites can also cause this symptom; however, some patients with ovarian tumors have difficulty breathing due to pleural effusion on one or both sides. And often with ascites, forming the so-called Meigs syndrome.

Huge benign ovarian cysts fill the entire abdominal cavity, increasing intra-abdominal pressure, affecting lower limb venous return, which can result in abdominal wall and bilateral lower limb edema; while malignant ovarian cysts fixed in the pelvic cavity compress the popliteal vein, often causing edema in one lower limb. The pelvic and abdominal organs are under pressure, causing dysuria, urinary retention, urgency or poor stool.

The secret to preventing left ovarian cysts is actually very simple. It is to eat alkaline foods to prevent the accumulation of acidic waste, because the acidified body fluid environment is fertile soil for normal cell canceration, and adjust the acid-base balance of body fluids. It can be started from the following points:

1) Develop good living habits, stop smoking and limit alcohol. Smoking, the World Health Organization predicts that if people stop smoking, five years later, the world's cancer will be reduced by 1/3; secondly, do not drink alcohol. Tobacco and alcohol are extremely acidic substances. People who smoke and drink for a long time can easily cause acid constitution.

2) Do not eat salty and spicy foods too much, do not eat foods that are too hot, too cold, expired and spoiled; those who are frail or have certain disease genetic genes should eat some anti-cancer foods and high alkali content, as appropriate. Alkaline foods maintain a good mental state.

3) Have a good attitude to cope with stress, combine work with rest, and don't be overly tired. It can be seen that stress is an important cause of cancer. Chinese medicine believes that stress leads to overwork and weakness, which leads to decreased immune function, endocrine disorders, metabolic disorders in the body, and the deposition of acidic substances in the body. Stress can also cause mental tension and cause qi stagnation, blood stasis, and toxic fire. Inset and so on.

4) Strengthen physical exercise and physical fitness, exercise more in the sun, and sweat more to expel acidic substances from the body with sweat to avoid the formation of acidic physique.

5) People who have regular lives and irregular habits, such as singing karaoke all night, playing mahjong, and not returning home at night, will aggravate their acidity and be prone to cancer. You should develop good living habits so as to maintain a weak alkaline constitution and keep all kinds of cancer diseases away from yourself.

6) Do not eat contaminated foods, such as contaminated water, crops, poultry, fish eggs, moldy foods, etc., eat some green organic foods, and prevent illness from entering the mouth.

1. The diet should be light, not suitable for eating lamb, shrimp, crab, eel, salted fish, black fish and so on.

2. Do not eat chili, hemp pepper, raw onions, raw garlic, white wine and other irritating foods and drinks.

3, fasting longan, red dates, Ejiao, royal jelly and other hot, coagulant and hormone-containing foods.

4, eat lean meat, chicken, eggs, quail eggs, grass carp, turtle, white fish, cabbage, asparagus, celery, spinach, cucumber, winter melon, shiitake mushrooms, tofu, fruits, etc.

Can ovarian cysts cause delayed menstruation?

Ovarian cysts can affect menstruation in women. Can lead to menstrual disorders in women, the patient's originally regular menstrual cycle will always be advanced or delayed. This is because ovarian cysts are related to endocrine dysfunction, insufficient luteinizing hormone secretion, and impaired ovulation function. Therefore, ovarian cysts cause delayed menstruation.

In addition to delayed menstruation, ovarian cysts also have lower abdominal pain, lower abdominal discomfort, increased vaginal discharge, leucorrhea yellow, leucorrhea odor, menstrual disorders, and usually a solid, painless mass in the lower abdomen. Sometimes sexual intercourse occurs pain. When cysts affect hormone production, symptoms such as irregular vaginal bleeding or increased hair mass can occur. Reversal of cysts can result in severe abdominal pain, tentacles, dyspnea, decreased appetite, nausea, and fever. Larger cysts can cause compression around the bladder, causing frequent urination and difficulty urinating. Serious ovarian cysts can also cause infertility and even canceration. So active treatment is needed.
