What Can Happen If Ovarian cysts Rupture?
More than likely, because of the severity of pain, the patient will find herself in the hospital emergency room, seeking relief from the pain. The treatment options will vary, depending on the severity of pain, and damage caused by the rupture.
When you meet the doctor he will check your overall condition. For example, your airways and circulation will be examined in order to make sure they are normal.
Next, it will be necessary to provide pain relief. This can be accomplished by administering medication intravenously or orally. Drugs such as Vicodin or Fentanyl are useful in reducing discomfort. Normally, an ultrasound will be performed to show how much fluid build-up is in the abdomen.
Immediately after these measures are taken, the patient will be started on strong antibiotics to prevent the onset of infection. If the patient is pre-menopausal, medication will be given to stop the ovulation process. This reduces the risk of future cysts.
In some cases, when there is deeper understanding of the cysts needed, also surgery can become an option. Usually laparoscopic is chosen, but sometimes more invasive techniques are used to help in diagnoses and planning the treatments.
When the cysts are removed using surgery, they are sent to laboratory. In the laboratory they will be analyzed whether they are benign or malignant. Even though malignant ovarian cysts are not common, they sometimes occur.
After the surgery, hemorrhage is something that every doctor take seriously. At its worst, it may be extremely dangerous for the patient. Even emergency surgery may become an option. When the patient's condition is normalized, the doctor makes normal follow-up investigations to make sure everything is under control.
Typical ovarian cysts are filled with fluid and they contain the egg that is about to be released. These types of cysts are called follicular cysts. Because a woman doesn't ovulate after menopause, the cyst formation will remarkably diminish after that.
Typically follicular cyst disappear when the egg inside of it is released. However, sometimes this doesn't happen, and then the cyst can grow bigger. If it ruptures, it can cause hemorrhage. On the other hand, a big cyst can get twisted. These both conditions can be very painful for a woman.
When all the tests and examinations are done and the results have been confirmed, the proper treatment for ruptured ovarian cysts is determined.
All the same, most women have ovarian cysts at some point of their lives without even knowing about them. So, this is not something you should worry too much about.
In some women, this isn't the case and complications can arise. It is these women that will require more frequent exams and monitoring of the situation to prevent any future ovarian cyst rupture.
