Is it better to strip or remove an ovarian cyst?

Ovarian cysts include physiologic cysts and pathologic cysts. Physiologic cysts usually do not require special treatment, benign pathologic cysts are usually removed through surgery, and malignant cysts require removal of the ovary. 1. Physiological cysts: for follicular cysts and corpus luteum cysts, they are physiological cysts formed due to the cyclic changes of follicles in the ovary, and they can disappear on their own after menstruation, so they do not need special treatment. 2. Pathologic cysts: (1) Benign mass: for patients with ovarian chocolate cysts and mature teratoma of the ovary, since the lesions are benign, the cysts are usually stripped off through surgery, which can reduce the damage to the ovary and ensure the normal function of female reproduction and endocrine function. (2) Malignant masses: For malignant masses of the ovary, comprehensive staging surgery or tumor reduction surgery is usually required, so the ovary will usually be removed, with postoperative chemotherapy if necessary. For patients who have been examined and found ovarian cysts, it is recommended to go to the gynecology department of regular hospitals to clarify the type of mass and then actively treat it under the guidance of doctors.
