The Threats Of A Painful Ovarian Cyst

The majority of the ovarian cysts are just functional or benign. Nonetheless, the cysts of the hemorrhagic type can be ovarian cysts that are extremely painful. An ovarian cyst is a tiny closed area within an ovary that contains fluids within a thin wall. A follicle that is bigger than 2cm over the usual size is considered to be an ovarian cyst. When it is a matter of hemorrhagic cysts, the other names are: blood cyst; haematocyst; and haematoceles. A classic sign of a hemorrhagic cyst is one where pain is experienced to the right of the abdomen. Bleeding can occur fast and be extensive and submerge the whole ovary rapidly to then generate serious pain. This kind of cyst happens when a blood vessel in the system breaks and blood passes into the system. The blood in the ovary can then start to clot and this can be observed by using a sonogram. Sometimes the hemorrhagic cyst ruptures and the blood is released to flood into the abdominal cavity.

The pain may become unacceptable when the cyst breaks. Mercifully, these occurrences are auto-regulating and do not typically necessitate surgical intervention. The right level of health can be restored after a cyst ruptures if the patient takes appropriate rest. It is uncommon for blood to leave the body via the vagina. An effective medicament for the treatment of hemorrhagic cysts is considered to be tetracycline although a physician's advice should always be taken. Upon torsion occurring, another type of painful ovarian cysts can come about. Ovarian torsion is also referred to as adnexal torsion, and is a severe and painful condition that must be urgently dealt with.

Endometroid cysts can be caused by endometriosis and are formed when a small area of endometrial tissue is rejected after bleeding. The tissue ends up as a transplant into another place where it grows larger. One of the main symptoms of endometriosis is serious and continual pain. The pain is at its most unacceptable when a cyst breaks. The blood building up in the tissue makes it turn a darker shade of brown and this phenomenon is therefore called a chocolate cyst. Upon final system rupture, fluids that were contained inside can pass into the pelvis, the uterus and the bowels.

If multiple follicular cysts are generated in the ovaries these are referred to as polycystic ovaries. This situation also known as polycystic ovarian syndrome causes problems with the correct menstruation cycle. PCOS retards the ovulation process making cysts filled with clear fluid develop next to the ovaries. PCOS is still not entirely clear to health care professionals. Nonetheless, the reasons for PCOS happening have been hypothesized as genetic weaknesses or lacking hormones. Studies indicate that insulin-resistant women have more chance of contracting PCOS. The same ovarian cells that are active in the development of teeth and hair can also contribute to dermoid cysts. This is an infrequent kind of cyst but can grow big and turn out to be quite painful. It is also frequent that women with ovarian cysts mix up the signs of endometriosis with signs of pelvic inflammatory disease.

It is often late in the diagnosis when ovarian cyst torsion is identified which often leads to necrosis or infarction of the cyst. The pain is intense in cases of ovarian torsion even if no cases of death have been recorded. Ovarian cyst torsion can be caused by a number of factors, one common one being anatomic changes. Cyst torsion is frequent for young teenagers with abnormal development such as long fallopian tubes or an absence of mesosalpinx. The presence of a large corpus lustrum during pregnancy increases the risk that the patient will suffer ovarian torsion.

Women who are being treated for infertility with for example induction of ovulation are even more menaced. The reason is that the theca lustrum cysts have a tendency to increase the volume of the ovaries. Ovarian cysts whether benign or malignant, are all at risk for torsion. There is no long-term solution using prescription medicines for painful ovarian cysts, even if there may be temporary pain relief. A holistic program however will tackle the problem at the root and thus bring a long lasting remedy. Conventional medicine on the other hand only focuses on the symptoms. Any results are therefore temporary and maybe accompanied by various side effects. A holistic agenda is a multi-dimensional program that targets all the underlying reasons that make ovarian cysts develop. There are many factors that contribute to the presence of painful ovarian cysts. These factors may either initiate the generation of cysts or simply aggravate the condition of those that already exist.
