Recently, I’ve been experiencing lower abdominal pain, and my doctor diagnosed it as an ovarian cyst. What exactly is an ovarian cyst?

Ovarian cysts may be caused by environmental factors, improper diet, or hormonal imbalances within the body; pelvic infection cannot be ruled out either. If an ovarian cyst is relatively large, it may cause pain in the lower abdomen on one side or a sensation of pelvic heaviness or pressure.
