What are Ovarian Cysts?
Ovarian cysts are fluid-filled sacs or pockets within or on the surface of an ovary. Women have two ovaries, each about the size and shape of an almond, located on either side of the uterus. Ovaries are responsible for producing eggs as well as hormones like estrogen and progesterone. Our state-of-the-art facility in Dubai is equipped with the latest medical technologies to ensure accurate diagnosis and effective treatment. Our ovarian cyst doctors in Dubai utilize minimally invasive procedures to reduce recovery time and enhance patient comfort. Choose Newsense Clinic for compassionate care, exceptional expertise, and a commitment to your health and well-being.
Types of Ovarian Cysts
Ovarian cysts can vary in type, with the most common being:
- Functional Cysts: These cysts form during the menstrual cycle and are usually harmless and short-lived. They are the most common type and are divided into two categories:
- Follicular Cysts: These occur when the follicle fails to rupture and release its egg, continuing to grow into a cyst.
- Corpus Luteum Cysts: After an egg is released, the empty follicle sac typically shrinks into a mass of cells called the corpus luteum. Sometimes, the sac doesn’t dissolve and instead seals off, filling with fluid.
- Dermoid Cysts (Teratomas): These are more unusual cysts that can contain tissue, such as hair, skin, or teeth, because they form from embryonic cells.
- Cystadenomas: These cysts form on the surface of an ovary and might be filled with a watery or a mucous material.
- Endometriomas: These cysts grow as a result of a condition known as endometriosis, where uterine endometrial cells grow outside the uterus, including on the ovaries, and can form a cyst.
Symptoms of Ovarian Cysts
Most ovarian cysts are small and do not cause symptoms. When symptoms do occur, they may include:
- Pain in the lower abdomen on the side of the cyst
- Fullness or heaviness in the abdomen
- Bloating
- Painful bowel movements
- Pelvic pain before or during the menstrual cycle
- Pain during intercourse
- Nausea, vomiting, or breast tenderness similar to that experienced during pregnancy
