Ovarian Cystectomy Surgery in Gurgaon
Ovarian cysts are a common but sometimes misunderstood problem that affects women of childbearing age. Recent studies show that between 25–30% of women of childbearing age will get ovarian cysts at some point in their lives. Most of the time, they go away on their own and don't cause any problems. However, some can get big, hurt, or make it hard to get pregnant. Ovarian cystectomy surgery is a safe and effective way to solve these problems.
What is an Ovarian Cystectomy?
An ovarian cystectomy is a surgery that takes out cysts from the ovaries without harming the healthy ovarian tissue. This is why this procedure is called 'fertility-preservation surgery'. The female reproductive system therefore remains healthy for women to get pregnant again in the near future.
Cysts can be small, simple fluid-filled sacs or larger, more complicated growths. Laparoscopic cyst removal is a common way to do the operation. It is a minimally invasive method that uses small cuts, a camera, and fine tools to make sure there is little scarring, a speedier recovery, and little pain.
An open approach may be necessary in uncommon or complicated instances. Most women today, on the other hand, benefit from laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy in Gurgaon when done by a skilled doctor. It helps patients get back to their normal lives faster and with better clinical and cosmetic results.
Types of Ovarian Cysts Requiring Surgery
- Functional Cysts: These are the most frequent kind of cysts and usually happen during normal ovulation. Most of them go away on their own, but if they cause pain or hormonal imbalance, persistent functional cysts may need to be removed.
- Dermoid Cysts (Mature Teratomas): Women often find these cysts when they are getting ready to have a baby. These cysts are made up of hair, skin, or fat tissue. They are not harmful, but they can get very big. Surgical excision stops the rupture or twisting.
- Cystadenomas: These are cysts that fill with fluid and come from cells on the surface of the ovary. If you have large cystadenomas, you may need laparoscopic cystectomy to avoid problems.
- Endometriomas and Paraovarian Cysts: Endometriomas are produced by endometriosis, and paraovarian cysts grow next to the ovary. These cysts are troublesome since they might affect fertility. So, a skilled surgeon needs to carefully look at the situation before the surgery may be done safely.

When is Ovarian Cystectomy Recommended?
Not every ovarian cyst needs surgery. Many functional cysts resolve naturally within a few menstrual cycles. However, your gynaecologist may recommend ovarian cyst removal surgery in Gurgaon if these signs are noticed during diagnosis:
- Size & Growth: If it is seen in the visual investigations that the cyst is larger than 5 cm and growing, then any experienced gynaecologist will suggest you choose surgery.
- Persistent Problems: If it is found that you have developed a cyst which is causing persistent pain, bloating, or pressure, then it is time you opted for surgery to reclaim your quality of life.
- Abnormal Features: Sometimes in your ultrasound or MRI scan it may show that there are some unexplained or abnormal growth or shape w.r.t. the ovarian cyst. This may need immediate attention and so you may have to opt for surgery.
- Ovarian Torsion: If the cyst is leading towards twisting of the ovary or some kind of rupture, then one must opt for surgery as this poses a greater risk.
- Malignancy: If there are any kind of indications which may lead towards malignancy of the cyst, i.e., the cyst is cancerous, then surgical extraction and thorough verification is essential.
- Infertility or Menstrual Irregularity: When the cyst starts to interfere with the performance of your ovaries, it is a major indication towards surgery. Infertility and menstrual irregularity may be an indication that the cyst is blocking the basic functioning of ovaries.
Benefits of Ovarian Cystectomy Surgery
Choosing laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy in Gurgaon under expert supervision offers numerous benefits:
- Preserves fertility: This is paramount in all gynae treatments. During surgery we ensure that the healthy ovarian tissues are retained to make sure there is scope for normal ovulation post surgery.
- Reduces symptoms: Eliminates pain, bloating, and menstrual irregularities. Women get a chance to reclaim a healthy and improved quality of life.
- Prevents complications: Early removal prevents torsion, rupture, or infection. These complications when prevented ensure better clinical success.
- Improves fertility outcomes: Cystectomy is especially beneficial for women with endometriosis or tendency for PCOS-related cysts.
- Cosmetic advantage: Minimal scarring and faster recovery improve the overall wellbeing of the patient, where they start to feel good about their health.
For young women and those planning pregnancies, this surgery is a key step toward restoring reproductive health safely.
Risks & Recovery After Ovarian Cystectomy
Like any surgery, ovarian cystectomy has some risks, though they are rare when performed by an experienced gynae surgeon like Dr. Aruna Kalra.
Possible Risks:
- Minor bleeding or infection
- Injury to surrounding organs
- Recurrence of cysts
- Adhesion formation (rare with laparoscopy)
Ovarian Cystectomy Recovery:
Most patients recover within 1-2 weeks after laparoscopic cyst removal. You can resume light activities within a few days, but avoid strenuous exercise for 3-4 weeks.
- Follow your doctor’s medication and dressing instructions.
- Eat light, nutritious meals and stay hydrated.
- Report persistent pain, fever, or abnormal discharge immediately.
Life after ovarian cyst surgery is usually normal. Menstrual cycles stabilize, and fertility improves, especially if both ovaries are preserved. Women planning pregnancy should discuss timing and fertility options during their follow-up visits.

What our patient say about us ?
I was accidentally diagnosed with dermoid cyst ovary at the age of 21.
I am lucky to get operated by Dr Aruna. She treated me as a mother. Her operative skills are
to be admired. Cyst was removed, ovary sutured and follow up ultrasound was perfectly clear.
I could join back after a week with no residual pain. I am really thankful to Dr Aruna.
Doctor did my aunt’s surgery for endometriotic cyst. It was 7.5 *8 cm chocolate
cyst. She was unable to conceive. After removing cyst laparoscopically, Dr Aruna rightly
advised her next steps for conception. Very patient and humble. Always answered her endless
queries. Recovery was also very easy from the surgery. I would recommend her to everyone.
Dr. Aruna Kalra is highly experienced Obstetrics & Gynaecology Surgeon. Her
treatment and laparoscopic surgery procedures for complicated and critical gynaecological
cases is of world class standard and highly recommended. She is very much friendly to deal
with patients and make them smile. She is no doubt an angel with blessing of God to serve
the human beings. We are highly thankful to Dr. Kalra.
I was bleeding heavily every month with excruciating pain starting many days
before periods. I was mistreated and misguided, given repeated courses of hormones. When I
met Dr Aruna, she explained the disease is adenomyosis and spread of endometriosis. After my
laparoscopy, we discussed how to prevent recurrence and followed her treatment. I believe,
once knew the reason of my disease, it felt better to understand the management, Dr Aruna
explains at length. She makes you comfortable before surgery with thorough counselling. Best
gynaecologist.
I am having wonderful experience with Aruna ma'am. Her experience can be seen
in her consultation. She is friendly as I feel free to ask any question to her. She answered
all of my queries with patience. Best part is she always prefer normal delivery over c

keep smile like she expertise in her work. I surely suggest dr. Aruna kalra and I am happy
with my decision.
I am thanking doctor Aruna on this platform to acknowledge her expertise. My
sister was not able to conceive because of a fibroid inside to uterus. We seeked her
opinion, got her reference through distant relative. We came from Kolkata got operated
laparoscopic myomectomy and after 6 months of monthly treatment under ma’am’s guidance, she
is blessed with 6 months pregnancy now. I wish we knew about Dr Kalra before. Best
laparoscopic surgeon, very best human being.
I met Dr. Aruna when i was planning fr a baby. Had met 2-3 gynaecologists
before her but my experience was very bad. Me and my husband were very happy with her during
our first consultation itself. She exudes so much positivity and confidence that its
infectious. She is a very easy going and humble person. Can discuss even the silliest
concerns with her and she would resolve it. I feel very fortunate to have found such a
doctor. She made my pregnancy journey very smooth. Would highly recommend her.
I feel very fortunate to have Best Gynae Oncho Surgeon in Gurgaon. She made my
pregnancy journey very smooth with normal painless delivery. No doubt She is the Best

Here are some frequently asked questions
It is a small to medium-sized operation, depending on the size and nature of the cyst. Laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy is a minimally invasive technique that only requires a short hospital stay.
You might feel a little pain or bloating in your stomach, but it should go away in a few days. Most of the time, normal periods start again after 4 to 6 weeks, and the ability to get pregnant stays the same.
Most cysts happen because hormones change during ovulation. Endometriosis, PCOS, or benign growths like dermoid or cystadenoma are other possible causes.
It normally takes 1 to 2 weeks to heal after a laparoscopic cystectomy. Don't do any hard work during this time and follow your surgeon's advice to make sure you recuperate quickly.
