There are many reasons why ovarian cysts come back 3 to 6 months after surgery. Here are the 5 main causes:

If you have had surgery to remove the cyst on one side, the risk of recurrence on the other side is very high. Due to endocrine disorders: The activity of the ovaries is directly related to sex hormones and female hormones. Therefore, when the patient has a hormonal disorder, the possibility of ovarian cyst recurrence after surgery can completely occur. Incomplete follicle development: incompletely developed follicles will have difficulty absorbing nutrients, causing recurrence of ovarian cysts. Stress, stress: Physiological stress, pressure, prolonged stress make female hormone levels disordered. The change of the hormone estrogen causes the female body to lose the stability of the menstrual cycle, skin pigmentation, and decreased sex drive.
