Can I take a hot spring bath if I have ovarian cysts?

In a broad sense, ovarian cysts are a type of ovarian tumor. This disease can occur at any age, but it is most common in women between the ages of 20 and 50. Ovarian cysts are difficult to diagnose early and are one of the diseases that pose a serious threat to women's health. Ovarian cysts often cause cystic masses to appear on the ovaries and may be malignant. Patients with ovarian cysts must be careful to avoid infection, especially not to take a hot spring bath.

Patients with ovarian cysts are advised not to take a hot spring bath. Hot springs are a natural therapy whose chemicals can stimulate the autonomic nervous, endocrine and immune systems. Although hot springs are good for your health, you should still be aware that they cannot cure all diseases and you should also be careful of their dangers. Especially for women, they must take adequate protective measures to avoid vaginitis when taking a hot spring bath. If they are accidentally infected, they should seek medical attention as soon as possible to avoid sequelae.

Everyone knows that soaking in hot springs can relieve stress and kill bacteria, and some patients with skin diseases even choose medicated hot springs for treatment. However, there are exceptions: generally, hot spring water will not cause vaginitis because high-temperature hot spring water is sterile, but if the temperature drops below 40°C, it may cause bacteria to grow. Moreover, due to the special physical characteristics of women, if women soak in hot springs for too long, it is easy for the normal acidity and alkalinity and beneficial bacteria ecology in the vagina to be destroyed, making the vagina susceptible to infection and inflammation. In addition, vaginitis can be contagious. If a healthy woman takes a hot spring bath or uses the same towel or bath towel as a woman with the disease, she may also be infected.

In fact, ovarian cysts are often caused by bad living habits. Some women may have a lot of stress in life and are usually very busy, so they have bad living habits and do not keep their private parts clean. In addition, the daily busyness and stress lead to a decrease in the body's immunity and endocrine disorders, which ultimately cause ovarian cysts.
