7. What Is the Treatment for a Hemorrhagic Cyst?
Most hemorrhagic cysts do not need treatment. Most ovarian cysts shrink and disappear on their own. Over-the-counter pain medication can help with pain and reduce inflammation. If cysts are a reoccurring problem, the doctor may suggest hormonal birth control to keep hormone imbalances under control.
In severe cases, surgery may be recommended or required. Cysts that do not go away in several cycles or continue to grow may need to be removed. Any cyst that is causing severe pain that affects the patient’s everyday life may be a candidate for removal.
