What is Ovarian Cyst?
An ovarian cyst is a fluid-filled sac on or inside an ovary. Many are harmless and go away on their own, but some grow, cause pain or need further evaluation.
When a cyst persists, is large or causes symptoms, laparoscopic cystectomy removes it through small cuts while aiming to preserve the ovary.
Symptoms of Ovarian Cyst
- Pelvic pain, often on one side
- Bloating or fullness in the abdomen
- Pain during periods or intercourse
- Irregular periods
