In medical definition, ovarian cysts are small sacs filled with fluid that reside on the surface of a woman’s one or both ovaries.
The Centres for Disease Control and Prevention has stated that the majority of the women in the premenstrual stage have these cysts at some point in their lives, while above 14.8% of women have them after their postmenstrual stage.
Fundamentally, most of these cysts are gentle in nature and not a part of any disease as they naturally occur during a woman’s menstrual cycle, and don’t have any cause per se.
However, it is the pathological cysts in the ovary that one must look out for since they can be both gentle and cancerous!
The reason why the majority of women can’t spot ovarian cysts is the fact that they normally don’t bother the person much, not showing any symptoms.

Here are some home remedies that can help relieve these symptoms and also reduce the size of the cysts in the ovary—
