An 11-week old pregnancy with ovarian torsion saved with timely intervention.
Ovarian torsion is a rare but serious condition where the o***y twists, cutting off its blood supply. It can occur during pregnancy, especially in the first trimester, often due to ovarian cysts. Symptoms include sudden, sharp pelvic pain, nausea, and vomiting. Early diagnosis and surgery can save the o***y and protect the pregnancy.
If you're pregnant and experience sudden, severe pelvic pain—don’t ignore it. Seek immediate medical care. Early action can protect both maternal health and pregnancy.
