I'm 25 and just found out I have a dermoid cyst near my right ovary it's 10x7x9 cm. My doctor recommended laparoscopic surgery, but I'm wondering if there are other options since I also have PCOD. What else can be done about this?

For your 10x7x9 cm dermoid cyst near your right ovary, while laparoscopic surgery is the most common approach, other options exist, especially considering your PCOD diagnosis. Watchful waiting with regular follow-up scans, hormonal contraceptives to reduce cyst formation, or surgical removal of the cyst alone (cystectomy) without removing the ovary (oophorectomy) are possibilities. Your doctor can help determine the best course of action based on your specific circumstances and preferences

View allI've been dealing with a painful Bartholin abscess or cyst and wondering if homeopathy can actually cure it completely or if surgery is the only option. Does homeopathy really work for this and can it prevent it from coming back?
Marsupialization. If cysts recur or bother you, a marsupialization (mahr-soo-pee-ul-ih-ZAY-shun) procedure may help. Your doctor places stitches on each side of a drainage incision to create a permanent opening less than 1/4-inch (about 6-millimeter) long

I've got this lump on my right breast and was told to take simrose tablets as it's supposed to be normal. But now there's another lump, and it hurts when I sleep because I lie on my breast. Should I be thinking about removing the fibroid? Who should I talk to about this, especially since I'm new in the city?
Given the recurrence of breast lumps and associated pain, especially with pressure, consult ageneral surgeon in your new city for a thorough evaluation, including a clinical breast examination, ultrasound, or mammography, to determine the nature of the lumps and recommend appropriate treatment, which may include fibroadenoma removal or other interventions
