Ovarian cysts are closed, sac-like structures within the ovary that are filled with a liquid or semisolid substance.
Ovarian cysts may not cause signs or symptoms. Larger cysts are more likely to cause signs and symptoms such as:
Pain in the abdomen, pelvis, sometimes radiating to the low back, is the most common symptom
Feeling of bloating or indigestion
Increased abdominal girth
Feeling an urge to have a bowel movement or having difficult, painful bowel movements
Pain during sexual intercourse (dyspareunia)
Pain in the lower right or left quadrant of the abdomen on one side
Nausea and vomiting
There are many causes and types of ovarian cysts, for example, follicular cysts, "chocolate cysts," dermoid cysts, and cysts due to polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
Most ovarian cysts are not cancerous.
Most ovarian cysts are diagnosed with ultrasound or physical examination. Transvaginal ultrasound is a common way to examine ovarian cysts.
The treatment of an ovarian cyst depends upon the cause of the cyst and varies from observation and monitoring to surgical treatment.
Rupture of an ovarian cyst is a complication that sometimes produces severe pain and internal bleeding. A ruptured (burst) ovarian cyst usually causes pain on one side that comes on suddenly.
