Formation of cysts in the ovaries is one of the most common forms of gynecological disorders. Gynecology hospitals in Mumbai offer the best treatment for all types of gynecological cysts.

What is a cyst?

A cyst is a sac-like pocket of tissue that contains fluids or other semi-solid substances. Most of the ovarian cysts are functional, i.e. they take part in the menstrual cycle. Often women don’t even know about these cysts. However, grown or mature cysts pose a danger as they may burst or twist inside the ovaries, causing severe pain. Gynecology doctors in Mumbai can help you know more about the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of gynecology cysts.

What are the types of cyst? 

• Follicle cysts: These cysts relate to follicles that are sacs in which eggs grow. Thus, these sacs are located in the ovaries. When a follicle fails to open and release an egg, it causes fluid accumulation that creates cysts.
• Corpus luteum cysts: In this case, the follicle doesn’t open and get sealed. The cyst caused by the additional fluid in the follicle is called a corpus luteum cyst.
• Dermoid cysts: These are sac-like growths on the ovaries that contain hairs, skin tissues and sometimes bones, teeth, fat tissues, etc.
• Cystadenomas cysts: These cysts develop on the outer surface of the ovary.
• Endometriomas: These cysts are formed when the tissues that were supposed to grow inside the uterus start growing outside it and get attached to the ovaries.

What causes cysts?
