Hi,
Given drugs will give you relief regarding pain and irregular periods.
These cysts enlarge and produce Endometriosis of the ovary. They respond to hormone stimulation during the menstrual cycle and produce many small cysts, which may then occupy and even replace the normal ovarian tissue.
When this type of ovarian cyst ruptures, the material spills over into the pelvis and onto the surface of the uterus, bladder and bowel and the corresponding spaces between. Adhesion can develop because of this rupture and may lead to pelvic pain.
Ovarian cyst will need monitoring for other changes like potential for cancer, rupture.
USG needs to be done for its rupture and imminent rupture. And if required, your physician will take decision for its removal.
Take care.
Best regards,
Dr. Neelam.
