Common symptoms of ovarian cysts include:

A huge benign ovarian cyst fills the entire abdominal cavity, increasing the intra-abdominal pressure and affecting the venous return of the lower limbs, which can lead to edema of the abdominal wall and bilateral lower limbs; while a malignant ovarian cyst fixed in the pelvic cavity compresses the iliac vein, often causing edema of one lower limb, and compression of the pelvic and abdominal organs, resulting in dysuria, urinary retention, urgency or difficulty in defecation. The symptoms of ovarian cysts are mainly manifested in the following aspects:

(1) Intra-abdominal masses. If an intra-abdominal mass of medium size or smaller has no complications or malignant transformation, its greatest characteristic is mobility. It can often move from the pelvic cavity to the abdominal cavity. The mass is generally not tender to touch. However, if there are complications or malignant transformation, not only will the mass itself be tender, but there may even be symptoms of peritoneal irritation. This is a common symptom of ovarian cysts.

(2) Ascites. The presence of ascites is often a characteristic of malignant tumors, but benign cysts such as ovarian fibromas and papillary cystadenomas can also produce symptoms of ovarian cysts with ascites. Endocrine symptoms such as hirsutism, hoarseness of the voice, and clitoromegaly are symptoms of masculinizing cysts.

(3) Cachexia, which is characterized by an extremely distended abdomen, emaciated, painful facial expressions, and severe exhaustion.

The above are the common symptoms of ovarian cysts. I hope they will be helpful to female friends. If you experience symptoms of ovarian cyst, you must go to the hospital for treatment immediately to prevent the condition from worsening and causing serious harm to the patient.
