How to cure ovarian cysts?
Most ovarian cysts are physiological, meaning they will naturally disappear or shrink within two to three months. Generally, treatment is not necessary, and there are no effective medications for treating ovarian cysts. If an ovarian cyst does not disappear after three months, or if it continues to grow, then it is considered an ovarian tumor. Such ovarian tumors require surgery for treatment. Therefore, if an examination reveals that an ovarian cyst has not disappeared after three months, surgery is necessary. This is because if an ovarian cyst persists for a long time, it may cause torsion or even become malignant.
Is vaginal itching vaginalitis?
Vaginal itching is mostly caused by vaginitis, with trichomonal vaginitis and candidal vaginitis causing noticeable symptoms. It is best to visit a hospital to test vaginal discharge and determine the infectious pathogen before medicating. Candidal vaginitis can be treated with clotrimazole vaginal tablets, miconazole suppositories, and oral fluconazole and itraconazole, which are all very effective. For trichomonal vaginitis, oral treatment with metronidazole or tinidazole can be used, and metronidazole can also be placed inside the vagina. These medications should be used under the guidance of a doctor.
How can trichomoniasis be cured without recurring?
For women, contracting trichomonas means getting trichomoniasis vaginitis. The main transmission route of trichomoniasis vaginitis is through sexual intercourse. If there is a history of unprotected sexual activity, it is possible to contract this type of vaginitis. Additionally, going to public baths for showers can also increase the risk of contracting this type of vaginitis. Therefore, if trichomoniasis vaginitis is not completely treated or if personal hygiene is poor, it is very likely to recur. During the first treatment, it is essential to follow the complete course of treatment, using Metronidazole or Tinidazole for seven days. After stopping the medication, a follow-up examination should be conducted after another seven days. If the results are negative in two consecutive follow-up checks, then it is considered cured. However, it is necessary for both male and female partners to undergo treatment simultaneously. If the male partner does not undergo treatment, the infection is likely to recur in the female partner. (Medication should be used under the guidance of a doctor.)
How to treat ovarian cysts?
The majority of ovarian cysts are physiological. If an ovarian cyst is detected for the first time during an ultrasound, it can be observed temporarily. Generally, such cysts will gradually shrink or disappear naturally after two to three months. If the cyst is relatively large, exceeding 5cm, and the ovary has not shrunk after two to three months of observation, but instead the cyst has grown, it is likely an ovarian tumor, which requires surgical treatment. If an ovarian tumor occurs, there is a potential for malignancy or torsion, so timely surgical intervention is necessary.
How to treat functional uterine bleeding?
Functional uterine bleeding should be treated according to the patient's age. If functional uterine bleeding occurs during adolescence, menstrual regulation treatment is needed. If it occurs during the reproductive age, it requires menstrual regulation and hemostasis, along with treatment to promote ovulation. If functional uterine bleeding occurs during menopause, it is mainly due to a lack of progesterone, and treatment with progesterone can be applied at this time. If there is endometrial thickening, dilation and curettage may be necessary, and the treatment plan should be determined based on the pathological results after the procedure.
How to treat teratoma?
Teratomas, for women, refer to ovarian teratomas. Once diagnosed, active surgical treatment is necessary. This is because such tumors could be malignant or may undergo torsion, thus requiring prompt treatment. Continued growth can cause destruction of the ovarian tissue, affecting ovarian function. If ovarian torsion occurs, it can lead to the necrosis of the ovary, also impacting its function. Therefore, surgical treatment is needed after diagnosis.
Why is enema used for endometritis?
Endometritis can be treated with enemas. The enema uses traditional Chinese medicine and is administered rectally, which is the closest access point to the uterus. Administering the enema in this area allows the medicine to be absorbed quickly and reach the uterus effectively. Therefore, the treatment of endometritis is quite effective with this method. Additionally, the Chinese herbal medicine used in the enema is warm, which can locally apply heat to the uterus, promote blood circulation in the pelvic cavity, and effectively treat inflammation. Thus, if one has endometritis, using a traditional Chinese medicine enema is entirely feasible.
Can you get pregnant with ovarian cysts?
Ovarian cysts are generally physiological and may affect pregnancy, as physiological ovarian cysts secrete hormones. At this time, there may be abnormal hormone secretion, or the cyst itself may be caused by abnormal follicle development, mainly presenting as follicular cysts. Therefore, if there is a follicular cyst, there is generally no normal ovulation, so pregnancy will not occur. Ovarian cysts can be observed for 2 to 3 months; if they are physiological, they will disappear naturally. If the ovarian cyst has not decreased in size or has increased after 2 to 3 months, it indicates that it is an ovarian tumor, and surgery is required.
Is cervical polyp cervical cancer?
Cervical polyps are not cervical cancer. Most cervical polyps are caused by chronic inflammation of the cervix, whereas cervical cancer is caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. After removing a cervical polyp and conducting a pathological examination, if it is benign, it is considered cured. However, cervical cancer is a malignant tumor that requires surgery. If high-risk factors are present after surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy are necessary. Therefore, these two diseases are different and vary in severity.
How to completely cure vaginitis?
There are many causes of vaginitis, and the treatments vary depending on the type. For fungal vaginitis, which is prone to recurrence, there are both simple and recurrent forms. Simple fungal vaginitis can be treated with medication over two treatment courses, whereas recurrent fungal vaginitis requires longer treatment, needing 3-6 months to heal completely. For trichomonal vaginitis, it is necessary to complete a course of medication, then stop the medication for a week before re-examination. If two consecutive re-examinations are negative, it indicates that the trichomonal vaginitis is cured. For bacterial vaginitis, after it is cured, probiotics must be placed in the vagina. As long as the probiotics proliferate normally, the bacterial vaginitis will also be cured. However, most bacterial vaginitis is caused by frequent sexual activity and relationships within the vagina, so it is essential to change these unhealthy lifestyle habits.
