Homeopathy for Ovarian Cyst

Are you looking for a homeopathic cure for ovarian cyst? This article discusses the homeopathy treatment of ovarian cystalong with the best homeopathic medicine for ovarian cyst treatment.

Ovarian cysts are growths that form on the ovaries, the two small organs on either side of a women’s uterus that produce an egg each month.

Each month when an ovary produces an egg, a small, cyst like structure- the follicle –begins to grow inside the ovary. When it is mature, the follicle ruptures at ovulation, when an egg is released. After ovulation, the empty follicle becomes the corpus luteum. If pregnancy does not occur, the corpus luteum eventually dissolves.

Ovarian cysts are collection of fluid, surrounded by a very thin wall, within an ovary. Any ovarian follicle that is larger than about two centimeters is termed an ovarian cyst. An ovarian cyst can be as small as a pea, or larger than an orange.

Ovarian cysts are very common in women during their reproductive years.

Since ovarian cysts are often first found during a pelvic examination, it is important to have regular checkups. Some types of ovarian cysts are normal and usually harmless, often going away without any treatment. Some cysts are abnormal and may cause problems.

This is especially important to have symptoms of ovarian cysts before, or if you are over age 40, when the risk of ovarian cancer (Homeopathy for Ovarian Cancer) is greater. If cysts are found early, many of the problems caused by them can be prevented.

Most ovarian cysts are functional in nature and harmless (benign). Ovarian cysts affect women of all ages. They occur most often, however, during a woman’s childbearing years. Some ovarian cysts cause problems, such as bleeding and pain. Surgery may be required to remove cysts larger than 5 centimeters in diameter.
