It's impossible to give a definitive answer about whether your aunt needs surgery without reviewing her specific medical reports and having a consultation with a doctor. However, I can provide general information about adenomyosis and umbilical hernias, which may help her understand the decision-making process.

I noticed a solid mass behind my left ovary measuring around 5 mm. Is surgery necessary for this or can it be dissolved with medication? What would you suggest?

A solid mass behind the ovary measuring 5mm, while concerning, does not automatically necessitate surgery. A doctor will likely recommend monitoring with ultrasound scans and blood tests to assess any changes over time. Medication is not typically used to dissolve solid masses, but hormonal birth control may be suggested if the mass is part of a cycle-related ovarian cyst and to prevent future cysts. If the mass grows, shows concerning characteristics, or causes symptoms, surgery might be needed, but it's not usually required for such a small solid mass
