Women with persistent or large ovarian cysts diagnosed by ultrasound.
Ovarian Cyst Removal
In the case of ovarian cysts, regular gynecological examinations and pelvic ultrasounds enable early detection and proper treatment planning. A minimally invasive surgical procedure is recommended to remove ovarian cysts that may affect fertility or cause pain — helping to restore ovarian function, regulate the menstrual cycle, and support your journey to conception.
What is Ovarian Cyst Removal?
Ovarian cyst removal is a surgical procedure in which fluid-filled formations (cysts) developing on or inside the ovaries are removed. While many cysts are harmless and resolve naturally, some can disrupt ovulation, cause hormonal imbalances, or lead to pain and complications.
At Genesis Athens, cyst removal is performed through puncture or laparoscopic techniques designed to minimize discomfort and recovery time. The goal is always to preserve healthy ovarian tissue and maintain fertility. Careful diagnosis and monitoring of ovarian cysts are essential to prevent complications.
Who is Ovarian Cyst Removal for?
Patients experiencing pain, irregular periods, or hormonal symptoms.
Women with cysts that may interfere with ovulation or IVF treatment.
Treatment steps
Your step-by-step guide to Ovarian Cyst Removal
Every treatment at Genesis follows a structured, personalised process designed to support you medically and emotionally at every stage. From the first consultation to post-treatment care, we are here to guide you with clarity, expertise, and compassion. While each treatment has its own clinical steps, the journey always begins with understanding your individual needs and building a plan that gives you the best possible chance of success.
Ovarian Cyst Removal
Your fertility specialist will assess your symptoms, medical history, and imaging results (typically a transvaginal ultrasound) to confirm the presence and type of ovarian cyst.
Your doctor will explain the recommended surgical method, outline the potential benefits and risks, and guide you through pre-operative steps.
The surgery is usually performed laparoscopically or robotically through small abdominal incisions. The cyst is carefully removed while preserving healthy ovarian tissue.
Most patients go home the same day or the next morning. Mild pain or bloating is common, but recovery is typically fast and well managed.
After the surgery, you will meet with your doctor to review results and plan your next steps, whether you are trying to conceive naturally or with treatment.
