Are Ruptured Ovarian Cysts Treatable?

 By

How not to get worried or even scared when you come across the terms ruptured or burst ovarian cysts! It is of course perfectly legitimate to have fears and if you are suspecting that one of your cysts is rupturing you should consider looking at the usual symptoms associated with this kind of complication.
A woman on a verge or suffering from fully ruptured ovarian cysts will most likely suffer from numerous sudden symptoms.
First of all, her general state of health would have taken a tumble over the recent days if not weeks! Aside from the common types of symptoms such as irregular periods and feeling bloated and generally unwell, a woman experiencing an ovarian cyst rupture will also usually suffer diffused pain located around the abdomen. Pain during sexual intercourse is often one of the most important signals and should never be overlooked.
Now, as soon as the cyst bursts, the symptoms increase dramatically and a very sharp, sometimes intense (stabbing pain) still located within the abdominal area will be felt.
This said, it is also very common for many women to experience no symptoms at all. As a result, a majority of them don't even know that they suffer from ovarian cysts when they are suddenly faced with this pain and discomfort.
Needless to say that if you experience such pain, a trip to your local hospital is necessary in order to make sure the damages are limited and that all other potential diseases or health issues are considered by a medical professional. You must never wait thinking that it will get better; this could lead to some very serious health problems, which I will discuss in the next paragraphs.
What are the real dangers of a burst or ruptured cyst?
A serious haemorrhage (internal bleeding) is the very first real danger brought about by the sudden rupture of an ovarian cyst. We are talking about abnormal bleeding here and not the occasion loss of blood you may have experienced when your cysts were developing or because of any other ailment, which hopefully have been treated by now. A haemorrhage should be a warning signal that something totally unusual and potentially serious is happening and you should make an emergency appointment with your doctor or alternatively visit your hospital for an emergency check up.
Furthermore, if left untreated the haemorrhage could rapidly progress and the blood that has been flowing could eventually become a risk for other nearby organs. After a short while, the untreated haemorrhage could lead to a full blood poisoning also called "septicaemia", which is a life-threatening condition and a lot harder to treat than common cysts. Again, do not wait if you feel like your cyst may have burst, and visit your doctor for proper advice.
So, are they treatable?
Yes, they are as long as you act soon enough. The key to treating this kind of emergency is to recognize the symptoms as soon as they pop up. As I explained earlier, this can sometimes be difficult because many women are asymptomatic but in all cases, yearly routine gynaecological examinations are advisable and should be taken seriously since only a specialist could really spot unseen signs. As far as treatments go, they differ depending on the severity of the ruptured cyst. If the cyst has burst but doesn't present any signs of complication, you'll be advised to take painkillers and watch out to make sure that the inflammation doesn't spread. If the internal bleeding is important and worrying, you will likely be given an ultrasound to determine the severity of the rupture. Antibiotics are usually given to all patients in order to prevent possible infections. Surgery is usually very rare in cases of burst ovarian cysts unless the cyst is clogging up the abdomen or damaging nearby organs but generally speaking, it is not needed.
Prevention, prevention, prevention...
Burst ovarian cysts are treatable but most importantly they are preventable. Prevention is far too often neglected because people don't know where to start. The word itself is vague and I can understand that it takes some real expertise to give some advice on what can stop ovarian cysts from growing in the first place. Yet, millions of former ovarian cysts sufferers who took the right steps are now symptom free. The cures they chose were above all things 100% natural and first of all aimed at reducing the pain and shrink the lumps and secondly making sure they wouldn't come back.
Prevention includes a wide range of different holistic treatments or cures. They are adaptable to each pathology, symptoms and are not seen as just another fad thing even by doctors who are now advocating heat for instance to reduce abdominal pain. Amongst the most sought after preventive treatments are dietary tips, visualization, meditation, deep breathing techniques as well as multiple herbal treatments. Finally, one of the best perks of using holistic therapies to treat and prevent ovarian cysts is that they produce no side effects whatsoever.
