Ovarian cysts are common among women. While most occurrences
of cysts are not dangerous, there are types of these growths which develop
complications and lead to rupturing of the cyst within the ovary.
Ovarian cyst rupture is triggered by a number of factors.
The most prominent cause of cystic ruptures is physical trauma on the part of
the patient, especially in cases where the cysts are large in size. In all
cases of ovarian cyst rupture, regardless of what caused the rupture, immediate
medical attention is required. A qualified medical practitioner is required to
asses the extent of injury within the ovary, and possibly forestall future
dangers which may arise from a ruptured cyst. Such dangers include the
inability of the ovary to produce egg follicles into the uterus for
fertilization, and the destruction of the womb through the washing away of the
endometrial wall within the uterus.
A rupture is characterized by sharp pelvic pain, as well
as the continual dull ache in the affected ovary. It is common for women to
experience nausea, giddiness, vomiting, fainting, and weakness in the body
structure. These symptoms may continuous or intermittent, depending on the
extent of the rupture and extent of the injury inflicted on the ovary.
After an ovarian cyst rupture, most of the fluid contained
within the cyst membranes is released out of the body through the reproductive
organs of the woman. A woman may therefore, experience vaginal bleeding or other
types vaginal discharges of a fluidly nature. Such bleeding, where it occurs,
is often not within the normal menstrual cycle of a woman.
The type of an ovarian cyst, its size, and the stage of
growth of such a cyst affect the color and thickness of vaginal discharges. Through
modern medicine, we are able to understand a cyst by studying the composition
of a vaginal discharge.

Seeking immediate medical attention is advised for women
with cysts, who experience sudden changes in the ovaries. When left unattended,
a cyst burst can cause serious health complications.
