Ovarian Cystectomy

About Ovarian Cystectomy

Ovarian Cystectomy is a surgical procedure performed to remove cysts from the ovary while preserving healthy ovarian tissue. Ovarian cysts are common and often harmless, but in some cases they may grow large, cause pain, irregular periods, fertility concerns, or complications such as rupture or torsion. When medication or observation is not sufficient, ovarian cystectomy becomes a safe and effective option to relieve symptoms and prevent further issues, while maintaining hormonal balance and reproductive health.
