Ovarian Cysts: The Silent Bubble Trouble
An ovarian cyst is like a tiny water balloon that forms on or inside your ovary - a fluid-filled sac that can range from pea-sized to as large as an orange. While most women develop at least one cyst during their lifetime, these often disappear unnoticed. But when they grow or multiply, they can cause significant discomfort and health concerns.
Did You Know? About 8% of premenopausal women develop large cysts requiring treatment, while nearly all women experience at least one small, symptom-free cyst during their reproductive years.
Your Ovaries' Vital Roles
These almond-sized organs on either side of your uterus perform two crucial functions:
- Egg production: Releasing one egg each menstrual cycle
- Hormone secretion: Producing estrogen and progesterone
Why Do Cysts Form? The Hidden Triggers
Cysts develop when the normal ovulation process goes slightly awry. Each month, your ovaries prepare tiny sacs (follicles) to nurture developing eggs. Normally, the follicle bursts to release the egg, but sometimes:
Follicle Doesn't Release Egg
The sac continues growing, forming a follicular cyst (most common type)
Follicle Reseals After Releasing Egg
Fluid accumulates inside, creating a corpus luteum cyst
Abnormal Cell Growth
Leads to dermoid cysts or cystadenomas (non-functional cysts)
Risk Factors That Increase Cyst Formation
- Hormonal imbalances: Common in PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome)
- Endometriosis: Uterine tissue growing on ovaries
- Pelvic infections: Severe infections can spread to ovaries
- Pregnancy: Cysts form to support early pregnancy sometimes
- Fertility drugs: Can cause multiple follicle development
Is That Pain a Cyst? Warning Signs
Many ovarian cysts are silent, but when symptoms appear, they often include:
Pelvic Discomfort
- Dull ache on one side
- Sudden sharp pain if cyst ruptures
- Pain during intercourse
Menstrual Changes
- Irregular periods
- Unusually light/heavy bleeding
- Spotting between cycles
Pressure Symptoms
- Frequent urination
- Difficulty emptying bowels
- Bloated, full feeling
⚠️ Emergency Signs: Sudden severe pelvic pain with fever/vomiting may indicate cyst rupture or ovarian torsion - seek immediate medical care.

Not All Cysts Are Created Equal
Functional Cysts
Related to menstrual cycle - usually harmless
- Follicular cysts: When follicle doesn't release egg (2-5cm)
- Corpus luteum cysts: Form after egg release (3-10cm)
- Resolution: Typically disappear in 1-3 cycles
Pathological Cysts
Abnormal growths - may require treatment
- Dermoid cysts: Contain hair, skin, even teeth (common under 30)
- Cystadenomas: Filled with watery/mucous fluid (common over 40)
- Resolution: Rarely disappear without treatment
Key Difference: Functional cysts come and go with your cycle, while pathological cysts persist and grow regardless of menstruation.
Endometriosis: When Tissue Goes Rogue
Endometriosis occurs when tissue similar to your uterine lining grows outside the uterus - often on ovaries, forming endometriomas ("chocolate cysts"). These blood-filled cysts can:
- Cause severe menstrual pain
- Lead to fertility challenges
- Result in painful intercourse
- Trigger chronic pelvic pain
Endometriosis vs Ovarian Cysts
| Feature | Endometrioma | Functional Cyst |
|---|---|---|
| Content | Old blood ("chocolate") | Clear fluid |
| Pain Pattern | Worsens during periods | Constant or intermittent |
| Fertility Impact | Often reduces fertility | Usually doesn't affect |
