What is ovarian muscle follicles?

Ovarian muscle tumors are bags that form on the surface of a woman's ovaries during or after ovulation to keep adult eggs. Most of these ovarian muscle follicles are harmless and also do not cause any unpleasant symptoms, they often disappear without treatment. But if the ovarian cyst is large it can cause twisting, rupture or bleeding that causes pain to the person.

Ovarian muscle tumors or functional ovarian cysts will normally disappear after the ovulation, however if the egg does not fall out or the scul d'vesicy closes after the egg is released, the bag may inflate containing the liquid inside.

The cause of ovarian muscle cysts is one or more small changes in the way the ovaries produce or release eggs. During the menstrual cycle, ovarian muscle cysts may develop due to:

• When the follicles in the ovaries do not release the eggs and bulge with fluid inside the ovaries or on the surface of the follicles.
• Cysts occur when the body does not disappear, but continues to bulge with internal fluid. It is the most common type of ovarian cyst.
• The development of ovarian muscle cysts is also common during clomiphene treatment (such as Clomid or Serophene) in cases of infertility. These cysts will disappear after the end of treatment, although it may take several months. They do not pose a danger to pregnancy.
• Some ovarian muscle cysts can be a benign cyst or associated with endometriosis or cancer.

Ovarian muscle cysts are usually harmless, do not cause symptoms and disappear without treatment for 1 to 2 months or after 1 to 2 menstruations. Therefore, ovarian cysts are often detected during regular medical examinations or medical examinations due to other medical conditions.

If the ovarian muscle cyst is larger, symptoms such as:

• Urinate frequently, if a large cyst is pressing into the bladder.
• Abdominal pain.
• Menstruation changes.
• Weight gain.

More severe symptoms may develop if the cyst is twisted ,bleeding or ruptured. See your doctor immediately if you have any of the following symptoms of pain, shock, or bleeding:

• Sudden severe abdominal or pelvic pain
• Nausea and vomiting
• Suddenly feeling dizzy, and weak
• Vaginal bleeding or shock symptoms caused by severe bleeding.

There are many other causes that cause signs or symptoms of ovarian muscle cysts, which is why an early examination is required if you have any abnormal symptoms in the pelvic area.

Factors that may increase the risk of developing ovarian muscle cysts include:

• History of previous ovarian muscle cysts.
• Recently used clomiphene drugs, such as Clomid or Serophene.
• Use low-dose progestin-only contraceptives (such as certain types of implants, tablets, and contraceptives).

If the ultrasound shows that the patient has an ovarian muscle tumor filled with fluid but does not cause severe pain, the doctor may suggest waiting to see for a period of time. After that, the patient can check the cyst from 1 to 2 months later to see if the size changes. Most cysts disappear after 1 to 2 months without treatment or after 1 or 2 menstruations.

Your doctor will recommend further testing or treatment if:

• Initial ultrasound did not clearly show what type of cyst or both ovaries were affected.
• The person has moderate to severe pain or vaginal bleeding.
• Ovarian muscle tumours are not smaller or disappear as expected.
• Patients with ovarian cancer risk factors, such as families with cancer or genetic changes. The higher the risk of ovarian cancer, the more tests the patient needs to perform to find out the cause of the ovarian cyst.
• Endoscopy allows the doctor to look at the ovaries through a lamped instrument and take samples of the cyst for a biopsy. After examining the sample, the doctor may decide to surgically remove the cyst or the entire ovaries with laparoscopic surgery.
• CA-125 (cancer antigen) testing is recommended only for women at very high risk for ovarian cancer. These are sick people with a history of many family members with cancer.

Most ovarian muscle tumors are harmless, do not cause symptoms and disappear without treatment. When treatment is needed, treatment objectives include:

• Relieves painful symptoms or relieves pressure on the pelvic area.
• Prevent more cysts from growing by preventing ovulation. Treatment with contraceptive pills to prevent ovulation.

5.1 Initial treatment

Since ovarian muscle tumours often disappear without treatment, the doctor may recommend an observed period of time without treatment to see if the ovarian muscle tumor is self-cured. The doctor will make an appointment after 1 to 2 months to see the patient again.

If the ovarian muscle tumor does not disappear, the doctor will perform additional tests to make sure that your symptoms are not caused by another type of ovarian tumor. Patients can use it at home with painkillers to help relieve unpleasant symptoms during this time.

5.2 Ongoing treatment

If ovarian muscle tumours do not disappear, appear abnormal on ultrasound or cause symptoms, then the person may need medication or surgery.

Your doctor may suggest you try taking the contraceptive pill for several months to prevent more cysts from forming.

Surgical removal of the cyst through laparoscopic surgery may be necessary if an ovarian cyst causes pain without disappearing despite having received medical treatment. If the cyst has an abnormal shape on the ultrasound or if you have other ovarian cancer risk factors, your doctor may recommend laparoscopic surgery instead of using laparoscopy.

Laparoscopic surgery and other types of surgery should generally be performed in reputable hospitals to minimize the likelihood of possible complications.
