Ovaries are a part of the female reproductive system located in the lower abdomen. They are placed on both sides of the uterus. There are two ovaries that produce hormones progesterone and estrogen as well as eggs. Ovaries are responsible for controlling the development of female body characteristics such as hair, body shape, and breasts. They also regulate pregnancy and the menstrual cycle. Over time, a fluid-filled structure or sac can be developed on one of the ovaries. This sac is called a cyst and many women, during their lifetime develops at least one cyst. Cysts are harmless and in most cases, they cause no pain or any symptoms. However, cysts may or may not represent a neoplasm or tumor. If it appears to be a tumor, it may be malignant or benign. In most cases, ovarian cysts do not show any signs of discomfort. But the symptoms can appear if the cyst tends to grow. These symptoms are the signs of ovarian torsion or ruptured cyst. Both these complications are required to be taken seriously as they can have severe consequences on your health if not treated early.
