Is a 16 mm cyst in ultrasound cause concern?

Patient's Query

Is a 16 mm cyst found in an ultrasound worth looking into seems pretty large

Answered by Dr. Nisarg Patel

A cyst measuring 16 mm can be concerning, but not all cysts are harmful. Causes may include hormonal changes or infections, and symptoms often include discomfort or bloating. Many cysts resolve naturally without treatment. However, it's important to consult a gynecologist for a thorough evaluation to determine the nature of the cyst and whether any action is required. They may suggest monitoring or further imaging if necessary.

If milk is not coming in since 11 days, it could be due to various reasons like stress, improper latch, or medical conditions. It's important to consult a lactation specialist to get proper advice and support. They can help identify the issue and suggest solutions to improve milk production.

I had my first time intimacy and during tissue breaking the blood was pink but not red why is that?

Female | 24

Experiencing light pink discoloration during your first intimate experience can be normal, often indicating minor tissue irritation or the breaking of a thin membrane. This can happen without significant pain and may not always appear as bright red blood. It's important to ensure you feel comfortable and relaxed during intimacy to minimize irritation. Should any unusual symptoms, such as heavy bleeding or persistent discomfort, arise, I suggest consulting a gynecologist for personalized advice. They can provide reassurance and guidance tailored to your situation.

Hi I'm FAVOUR, I missed my period for 2 months and I wasn't pregnant. I went for test and they said I have infection ( staphylococcus erus and candida albican), after which I was given 3 days injections of antibiotics. A week after the injection and treatment, I saw my period that lasted for 5 days but it wasn't flowing as usual. A week after seeing the period, I started seeing brown discharge coming out of my vagina and now it's not longer brown discharge that's coming out, it's blood, a heavy flow of blood is pouring out of my body 24/7, and it's been flowing like this for close to 2 weeks now, please what can I do?

Female | 19

The infection that you had might be the reason that your menstruation has changed and thus uneven bleeding has happened. Infections can sometimes cause heavy bleeding or irregular periods. The brown discharge you saw may have been old blood mingled with the vaginal discharge. Should the heavy bleeding continue, contacting a healthcare provider is vital to get a more thorough evaluation and care.

Greenish or watery breast secretions are warning signs of breast infection or a hormonal imbalance. It is advisable to see a gynecologist, for an accurate diagnosis and treatment. Do not wait for the symptoms to get worse and consult a doctor.

I am trying for baby my periods miss 5 day after that I feel some bleading I am confused I am pregnant or not

Female | 25

Some women experience light bleeding around their regular period time when they are pregnant. This is caused by something called implantation bleeding when a fertilized egg attaches to the uterus. If you are unsure, you can take a pregnancy test to confirm.
