Understanding Ovarian Cysts
An ovarian cyst is a sac filled with fluid that develops either on or within an ovary. Common symptoms include pelvic discomfort, bloating, or pain during menstruation. While many ovarian cysts resolve on their own, others may need intervention if they grow too large, cause pain, or lead to complications.
What is Ovarian Cyst Aspiration?
Ovarian cyst aspiration is a minimally invasive procedure designed to remove fluid from an ovarian cyst. By draining the fluid with a needle, this method helps reduce the cyst’s size and alleviates symptoms such as pressure or pain. It offers an effective, non-surgical treatment for ovarian cysts.

When is Ovarian Cyst Aspiration Needed?
Doctors may recommend ovarian cyst fluid aspiration for several reasons, such as:
- Symptom relief: If the cyst is causing significant pelvic pain, bloating, or discomfort, aspiration can provide immediate relief.
- Reducing cyst size: Draining the fluid can shrink the cyst, lowering the risk of complications or further discomfort.
- Diagnostic purposes: In some situations, fluid from the cyst is collected during the procedure and tested to determine whether the cyst is benign or requires further investigation.
How is Ovarian Cyst Aspiration Performed?
- Preparation: You’ll be given mild sedation to ensure comfort during the procedure.
- The Aspiration Process:
- A thin needle, guided by ultrasound imaging, is carefully inserted through the vaginal wall to access the cyst.
- The needle then draws out the fluid, effectively reducing the cyst’s size and relieving symptoms.
- Completion:
- The procedure typically lasts 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the cyst’s size and location.
- Once the fluid is removed, the needle is withdrawn, and the area is cleaned.
Recovery from Cyst Aspiration
After the procedure, you may notice mild cramping or light spotting, but these effects are temporary. Most individuals can resume their normal routine within a day or two. However, it’s advisable to avoid strenuous activities or heavy lifting for a short period to allow proper healing.
