Suppositories from ovarian cysts

Ovaries in the female's reproductive system are "conceived" by nature as a kind of material bank necessary for the birth of a new life. Eggs, which in the process of conception merge with spermatozoa, are generated precisely in this organ of the small pelvis of a woman. Ovaries perform endocrine function as well. Produce sex hormones. Sometimes on the surface of the ovaries are formed bags of different diameters (up to 20 cm) with thin walls filled with liquid, which are called cysts.

Treatment of cysts is both conservative and operative, depending on the nature of the disease and the degree of organ damage.

Suppositories from the follicular ovarian cyst

Of all the cases of the appearance in women of the ovarian cyst, 80% falls on the follicular. It arises from the follicle that has not exploded during ovulation, which continues to grow at the expense of the fluid inside itself, forming a cyst. This formation is affected by women of any age from puberty to menopause. More often follicular cysts resolve themselves during several menstrual cycles. With another variant of the course of the process, serious complications are possible: torsion of the full or partial ovary, which is fraught with the necrosis of the tissues, which leads to peritonitis; rupture of the follicular cyst (peritonitis danger); rupture of the ovary (risk of bleeding with death).

With conservative treatment, cysts use medicamentous, physiotherapeutic and alternative methods. If there is a need to remove the cyst, laparoscopy is used, in case of complication, the traditional surgical method (incision of the abdominal cavity).

Since follicular cysts occur against a background of hormonal failures, with medicinal treatment hormonal suppositories are used. One of them is the morning, the active ingredient of which is the hormone progesterone. The preparation is in the form of capsules, but can be used vaginally. Anti-inflammatory suppositories are also prescribed. Supplement the treatment can be homeopathic remedies. In addition to the aforementioned candles containing propolis, a suppository is also made from the alcohol extract of propolis, fir, juniper, geranium based on cocoa butter. Applied vaginally. Rectally put a suppository celandine.

The ovarian cyst can also be found in pregnant women. The appearance of it is often provoked by a serious hormonal reorganization of the body, which occurs during pregnancy. The ovaries of a woman work hard and this leads to the formation of a functional cyst, which does not require unlike a pathological surgical intervention. Treatment is determined by a doctor, in which the role of candles is very limited because of the contra-indications of most of them.
