What Are the Precautions After Undergoing Ovarian Puncture Surgery?

Ovarian follicle puncture is a method for treating infertility. The puncture should be performed close to the edge of the ovary and near the vaginal wall puncture site, which facilitates the release of eggs. Postoperative care includes:

• Medication for preventing infection, hemostatic agents, and sending the aspirate for pathology.
• Sexual activity and bathing are prohibited for half a month.
• Ultrasound re-examination is required the next day after surgery and one month after surgery, with follow-up ultrasound re-examinations every three months, and every six months thereafter.

Ovarian follicle puncture involves puncturing the cyst with a PTC needle through the vaginal entrance under B-mode ultrasound guidance, aspirating the cystic fluid, injecting dual drugs, and retaining them for 5 minutes, ultimately causing the cyst to completely disappear. The advantages include:

1. Simple and Quick Operation: Guided by ultrasound, it is simple and quick, can be performed in outpatient clinics or at the patient's bedside, providing great convenience for patients.
2. Significant Therapeutic Effect: Ultrasound-guided interventional therapy for various cysts does not require abdominal access. Under ultrasound guidance, accurate localization is achieved, and an imported puncture needle is used to inject from the abdomen, puncture the cyst, aspirate the cystic fluid, and inject special drugs to cause the cyst to atrophy and disappear. Simple, non-separated cysts can be cured in one treatment, effectively avoiding abdominal adhesions and the need for dissection, thus preventing recurrence.
3. Accuracy in Displaying Lesions: Real-time ultrasound monitoring can accurately display the precise location of the lesion, find the optimal injection point, and determine the injection site, angle, direction, and depth. It displays different anatomical levels of the human body, ensuring that important organs, blood vessels, and bile ducts are not punctured, thereby minimizing the risk of puncture.
4. Minimal Tissue Damage and Pain for Patients: Using an 18G imported fine needle for puncture, the needle hole is less than 1mm, resulting in no trauma and no pain, and does not affect normal work and life, allowing patients to leave immediately after treatment.
5. Low Cost: CT, MRI, and isotope-guided interventions are relatively expensive, and repeated examinations for patients are costly. Compared to surgery and long-term drug treatment, ultrasound-guided interventional therapy has a relatively lower cost, and patients can achieve the best results with a one-time treatment.
