Different Kinds of Ovarian Cyst

One of the biggest concerns of women around the world when it comes to health is having an ovarian cyst. Women between the ages of 30-60 are more likely to suffer from this reproductive problem. With the increase in the number of cases of ovarian cyst, it seems like no woman is safe from this dreaded disease. Therefore, it is important that you know the ovarian cyst symptoms so you would know what to do in case you have it.

So what are the things you have to learn about ovarian cyst? This condition actually begins as a sac or pouch in the ovary. The cyst may contain hard elements or fluid, and sometimes both. Single and married women alike can acquire ovarian cyst.

But what really triggers the growth of the cyst? The growth of the cyst is actually linked to the monthly cycle of ovulation in women. When the hormone is released in the ovary, follicles are produced that serve as containers for young eggs and fluids. As the egg finally matures, the follicles holding them rupture and the egg is released. The empty sacs then turn into tiny pouches known as corpus luteum. However, ovarian cyst develops once the follicles do not break and the eggs are not released.

The common type of ovarian cyst is known as the functional cyst. It is quite difficult to tell if you have functional cyst because its symptoms are not noticeable in its early stage. Some women may not be even aware that they have already developed functional cyst. However, they usually experience its symptoms like occasional pain in the abdomen, irregular monthly period, and vomiting. Sometimes the cyst just fades away for no apparent reason. In order to find out if your cyst is shrinking or not, talk to your doctor right away.

A different kind of ovarian cyst you need to know is the polycystic ovaries. In this case, the follicle in the ovaries fails to crack. Millions of women around the world are suffering from this type of ovarian cyst making it the most common type of ovarian cyst. Moreover, it contributes to women’s infertility.

Dermoid, also known as Teratoma, is another variety of ovarian cyst. It is distinguishable by its mature skin with sweat glands and hair follicles. It may look like the ones present on skin tissue, and can also contain fats. The malignant type of this cyst is uncommon which means it is benign more often than not. Typically, women of young age are the ones more at risk in having this type of ovarian cyst.

Endometroid is another type of cyst on ovaries that usually causes pelvic pain especially during monthly period. This happens when the endometrial tissue or the membrane that forms the inner layer of uterin wall starts to develop inside the ovaries. Infertility also develops if you have Endometroid cyst.

It is valuable that you know the various symptoms of ovarian cyst. Seek medical help right away if you observe some of its symptoms. In order to ease your condition, early detection of the disease is necessary.

    Is there a way to find out if I have an ovarian cyst if I don’t go to the doctor? I don’t have a lot of money and I would like to know if I can figure out the cyst myself.

    The symptoms are very confusing and based on what I know even the doctors get confused about it.

  2. Monalie Pint UNITED STATES Mozilla Firefox Windows (April 19, 2010 at 10:01 pm)

    Is there a way on how I can prevent this illness just before I start to notice and feel the symptoms? I am a have-not and I know the medication will cost a lot. Will you please inform me and the other women out there on what to do in order to get rid of the ovarian cyst?

  3. Pat Min UNITED STATES Mozilla Firefox Windows (April 20, 2010 at 3:09 am)

    You mentioned that there are so many kinds of ovarian cyst. The symptoms are very confusing and disturbing. What if the symptoms of other reproductive diseases are just the same with the symptoms of the ovarian cyst? Is there any threat if I just ignore the signs and symptoms?

  4. Carla Bore UNITED STATES Google Chrome Windows (April 30, 2010 at 1:37 am)

    Since there are different types of ovarian cyst, are there also different types of medication or surgery for each of them? I would like to know these things in order for me to have more knowledge regarding this matter. Thank you for all of your posts! I love them!

    I had profuse bleeding a month ago and my doctor told me to undergo ultrasound examination for possible growth of ovarian cyst. Is this really necessary? I’m afraid I have to go surgery if the result of the test is positive. Bleeding already stopped after my doctor gave me medication. I’m still worried.

    Great post! Since I found your blog I have this new responsibility to make sure that every woman I know will learn about ovarian cyst! We should all be aware of this.

    Well to all of you that are worried about this condition don’t. I have been diagnosed with this for the last 1.5 years and the only way to avoid it is by taking birth control pills. The best way to detect this is the pain feels like severe cramps but it comes on suddently and goes away some times you have to take pain pills to control it. It all depends on each womens cycle but for me the pain is worse right before and after.
    After i got diagnosed i still have pains but i don’t worry too much any more.

    @justagirl

    The best advice I can give you is to schedule an appointment with your doctor. The doctor will be able to accurately tell you what you have based on your symptoms.

    I really appreciate your efforts in providing good information about ovarian cyst. Besides that I really liked the book you are recommending.

    Thank you!

    You’re doing a very good stuff here author! My pregnant sister is quiet nervous and worried about having ovarian cyst cancer while she’s on her third trimester period, but then after reading your article, she’s much calmer now.

  12. Charles PHILIPPINES Mozilla Firefox Windows (November 23, 2010 at 9:25 am)

    That must be the reason why the doctors recommends and suggests every pregnant woman to have ultrasound test and regular check up for their baby. It’s to keep them both safe and in a good health.

  13. Maggie PHILIPPINES Mozilla Firefox Windows (December 7, 2010 at 11:44 am)

    Two thumbs up for this article! So useful and timely. Every now and then, not just pregnant, but people should be aware of their health. Whether they are still doing good or what. Plus the bonus of teaching us the natural way of curing it, a really perfect reminder!
