Ruptured ovarian follicles?!


Question: Ruptured ovarian follicles!?
my 10 year old sister just went to the hospital complaining about lower abdominal pains!. The doctors say its ruptured ovarian follices!.

Does anyone know exactly what this is and why she got this!. ThanksWww@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
It is completly normal!. I do ultrasound and I see this all the time!. A follicle is a small cyst that holds a egg and each month one of the cyst grows bigger than the others and it can rupture causing pain!. It is nothing to worry about!. As long as they are rupturing it is good!. If they don't rupture then they have to go in and take them out!. Tell her to take some motrin and it will help with the pain!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
