All About Ovarian Cysts

April 21, 2009


The menstrual cycle of females are regulated by the ovaries. The ovaries are also responsible for generation of egg.  Formation of ovarian cysts disrupts normal functioning of ovaries.  These cysts are sac shaped and carry liquid, semi-solid and gaseous materials. Ovarian cysts are of many types.

One type is follicular cyst. These are formed due to over growth of follicles. Follicles are tiny sacs which carry egg within them while approaching uterus. Cysts of follicles are formed when the follicle does not release the egg when menstrual cycle is approaching. They grow more in size and form cysts. These follicular cysts are resolved over a period of time but may form hemorrhagic cysts. These may be release of blood which penetrates the egg due to breakage of vessels or injury.

The next type of cyst  is luteum cyst. Corpus luteum is developed after the egg is released by the follicle. It is to support to possible pregnancy. In absence of pregnancy, this mass of tissue breaks down and dissolves. There is a possibility that this tissue fills in itself a fluid and remains in the ovary. Normally it does not show any symptoms. It is only found in one side.

Sometimes, the ovaries tend to develop abnormal tissues. The cysts that are formed by these tissues are called dermatoid cysts and cystic teratomas. Chocolate cyst is formed due to yet another abnormal growth. When cells that normally should grow inside the uterus start to grow outside it, a condition called endometriosis occurs. This endometriosis may reach ovaries and cause bleeding by damaging the endometrial tissue. This is what forms chocolate cysts or endometrioma.

Women who experience irregular vaginal bleeding must get themselves checked for any serious cyst formation. At any given time, some of the other cysts are always present but they are not serious. The best time to get diagnosis done is when bleeding is continuing.
