What harm will ovarian tumors bring to women

Ovarian tumors have no complications and rarely cause pain. Therefore, if patients with ovarian tumors feel abdominal pain, especially if it occurs suddenly, it is mostly due to torsion of the tumor pedicle. Occasionally, it may be caused by tumor rupture, bleeding or infection. Malignant cysts often cause abdominal pain and leg pain. The pain often causes patients to seek emergency treatment. So what harm can ovarian tumors bring to women?

If the ovarian tumor is large, it may squeeze the uterus and affect the growth of the uterus, leading to miscarriage or premature birth. It may squeeze the uterus and fetus, causing abnormal fetal position, affecting normal delivery, and may also block the birth canal, leading to dystocia. Ovarian tumors can affect ovarian function and may cause fallopian tube obstruction. These factors will affect pregnancy. Research data shows that the probability of infertility in women with ovarian tumors can be as high as 40%.

Although ovarian tumors are small in size, they usually appear in the reproductive organs and have a certain impact on women's fertility. There is no fixed age for the occurrence of ovarian tumors, but they are more common in women of childbearing age.

The most important thing is that the ovaries are in the pelvic cavity and we cannot directly observe them. In addition, ovarian tumors are asymptomatic in the early stages. Many patients do not have a strong sense of self-examination and cannot use methods for early diagnosis and differentiation. In many cases, when malignant tumors are discovered, they are often already in the late stages. Therefore, to date, the 5-year survival rate of ovarian tumors is still only 25-30%, making it the most threatening disease among gynecological tumors.

After reading the above description, people have already understood the relevant hazards of ovarian malignant tumors. Only by understanding its harmfulness can people correctly view this disease and pay attention to the prevention and treatment of ovarian malignant tumors in their future life.
