Does a cystic solid mass in the left ovary affect ovarian function?

Whether a cystic solid mass in the left ovary will affect ovarian function cannot be determined, e.g., benign teratomas usually do not, while ovarian cancer, for example, does. Whether it will affect ovarian function depends on the type of ovarian tumor. Ovarian cystic solid mass is common in ovarian teratoma, ovarian endometriosis cyst, ovarian cancer, etc.
1. Teratoma: it can be divided into benign and malignant, most of the benign teratomas will not affect ovarian function, while malignant teratomas may affect ovarian function.
2. Ovarian endometriosis cysts: endometriosis is located in the ovary, which has a certain erosion effect on the ovary, so most of them will have a certain effect on ovarian function.
3. Ovarian cancer: it is a malignant tumor of the ovary, which will not only seriously affect the function of the ovary, but also have a certain impact on women’s health.
In addition to the harms brought by the mass itself, some complications may occur, such as rupture of the mass, ovarian tibial torsion and so on, which will lead to acute abdomen in women. Therefore, patients with ovarian masses should seek regular medical attention and follow the doctor’s instructions for active treatment.
