Question: It was discovered today that I have 2 large cysts on my left ovary. One of those cysts being 8cm. I have 3 children to care for and don't have time for being down repeatedly. I am hoping to convince my ob/gyn to remove the ovaries tomorrow. Is this in your opinion a smart decision?
Brief Answer:
LAP CYST REMOVAL ADVICED, PLS UPLOAD FULL REPORT
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for writing to us with your health concern.
Considering that the average of menopause is 50, you still have 7 productive years ahead of you.
The repercussions of having your ovaries removed would be significant.
They would include hot flushes, irritability, fatigue, bone problems, mood changes etc.
I would not recommend coping with them before the time comes.
The cysts can be easily removed laparoscopically ( it would help if you could upload the ultrasound report, that would enable me to be more useful to you ).
I would advice laparoscopic cystectomy ( cyst removal ) instead of ovarian removal.
All the best.
Please feel free to ask for further clarifications.
