If an ovarian cyst does not meet the surgical indications, conservative drug therapy may be adopted; however, the choice of medication must be based on the nature of the tumor. Endometriomas may be treated with oral short-term contraceptives, while inflammatory cysts may be managed with oral antibiotics and blood-activating, stasis-resolving agents—always under physician supervision. If the cyst is large, there is an increased risk of rupture, necessitating prompt surgical intervention to prevent complications.
