Both fibroids and cysts are common in females, especially in the period before menopause. Fibroids are usually noncancerous tumours that form in the muscular wall of the uterus. Ovarian cysts are sacs filled with fluid and are found in or over the ovary. These might be very common in women, but never try to self-diagnose and start treatment on your own. Consult the best gynaecologist for proper diagnosis and a medical plan which is fit for you.

Dense, rigid and noncancerous tumours Fluid-filled sac, which is usually benign

Certain tests also help in understanding the abnormality and help in the diagnosis. In order to make sure that your symptoms are not a result of a cyst or fibroid, approach the best multispecialty hospital in India, and get your tests done to know the exact problem you are facing. These tests may include:

  • Abdominal ultrasound
