What is an ovarian cyst?

In simple terms an ovarian cyst is defined as a collection of fluids enclosed by a small wall that is within the ovary it self. In fact an ovarian follicle that is larger than say two centimetres may be referred to as an ovarian cyst. Ovarian cysts can vary in size a lot; in fact they can be as small as a pea and even be as big as a cantaloupe. In most of the cases ovarian cysts are benign in nature, i.e. they cannot cause any harm. In fact in the United States, almost every woman who has not reached menopause can be diagnosed with the condition and in almost 14.8% of the women who has reached menopause. But the presence of the disease that is known as Ovarian Carcinoma is found only in nearly 15/100000 women a year. For the treatment of ovarian cyst all over the world herbal treatment is being looked upon as the ultimate solution.

The condition of ovarian cysts is common among women of every age. However, they are more common in women of the child bearing age. In certain case, the cysts might lead to various problems like bleeding and pain, and surgery may be recommended in such cases.

One major reason for the excessive bleeding, pain and infertility is the occurrence of ovarian cysts. They are in most cases benign in nature but scientific test is recommended to make sure. Surgery is the most common method of treatment for these cysts. But in many cases surgery is not desired and in some cases it just might not be feasible.

In many cases the patients are told to opt for hysterectomy. However, today, the 'Herbal Treatment' is more and more gaining popularity as the ultimate solution for the ovarian cysts.
