Where can I get ovarian cyst sclerotherapy in Seoul?
Ovarian cyst sclerotherapy in Seoul is available at Trinity Women's Clinic in Gangnam, Seoul, about a minute from Exit 1 of Sinsa Station, where two female board-certified OB-GYN specialists with 20 and 15 years of specialist experience, Dr. Nan-hee Jeong and Dr. Ki-yeol Yang, see you from consultation to follow-up. Under ultrasound guidance, the fluid inside the cyst is drawn out and a sclerosing agent such as alcohol is introduced to reduce the chance of it refilling, aiming to spare normal ovarian tissue. It is done under IV sedation without general anesthesia; after about two hours' rest in the recovery room and a final ultrasound, you go home the same day and can resume daily life the next day. Trinity is a foreign-patient facility registered with Korea's Ministry of Health and Welfare. An English-speaking coordinator answers directly on WhatsApp, before your trip and after you return home.
