Hello Anonymous,

In cases of certain types of ovarian cysts, birth control pills may be prescribed. This treatment will not make the cysts you already have go away. But, it will prevent new cysts from forming.

Unfortunately, from the scan report, you have an enlarged right ovary with two complex cysts, many cysts in the left ovary, as indicated by the term polycystic, and mucus-filled cysts in the cervix , as indicated by the term nabothian. Generally, nabothian cysts do not cause any problems and no treatment is necessary.

Sometimes. a cyst can be removed without having to remove the ovary. This surgery is called cystectomy. The surgeon can do this through a small incision using laparoscopy. In other cases, the ovaries may have to be removed.

I think your doctor is correct in recommending laparoscopic removal of the cysts.

Wishing you the best,

Maryann
