Ovarian cysts are not always a noticeable issue. A large portion of women will develop an ovarian cyst at some point in their lives, and many of these cysts will disappear on their own without any medical treatment.

However, some women may experience noticeable symptoms and complications due to their ovarian cyst. These issues include:

• Pelvic pain
• A feeling of fullness in the abdomen
• Bloating in the abdomen
• Fever
• Vomiting

In some severe cases, a large ovarian cyst may cause the ovary to become twisted, a complication known as ovarian torsion. The cyst may even rupture, which can lead to internal bleeding and other complications.

At Mary Geldernick MD, we offer robotic surgery to remove ovarian cysts. The procedure is safe and offers a quicker recovery time than traditional surgery. Contact our office today to schedule an appointment.
