Overview
Ovarian cysts are fluid-filled sacs on or within the ovary, and most are functional cysts that form during the normal menstrual cycle and resolve on their own. The real task is telling a harmless cyst apart from one that needs attention — such as a cyst that is large, persistent, growing, causing pain, or showing features that warrant closer evaluation. At Health Nest (HSR Layout) and Raghava Multispeciality Hospital (Attibele), Dr. Sanjana L uses pelvic ultrasound and, when needed, blood markers to assess a cyst accurately and calmly explain what it means for you.
Most simple cysts need only reassurance and a repeat scan after a few weeks. When a cyst is large, persistent, twisted (torsion), or symptomatic, Dr. Sanjana — a fellowship-trained (FMAS) laparoscopic surgeon — can remove it through keyhole surgery that preserves healthy ovarian tissue and protects future fertility. The goal is always the least intervention that safely resolves the problem.

Frequently Asked Questions
Most ovarian cysts are functional and harmless, and they resolve on their own within a few menstrual cycles. A minority need treatment because they are large, persistent, painful or have concerning features on a scan. An ultrasound helps decide which category yours falls into.
Often not. Simple cysts are usually just monitored with a repeat scan. Surgery is considered for cysts that are large, growing, twisted or symptomatic. When surgery is needed, laparoscopic (keyhole) removal that preserves the ovary is usually possible.
Most cysts do not affect fertility. Some conditions linked to cysts, such as endometriomas or PCOS, can, which is why proper evaluation matters. Dr. Sanjana takes your fertility plans into account before recommending any treatment.
