• Status: RECRUITING
• Sex: Female
• Target Recruitment: 165

Inclusion Criteria

1. Women diagnosed with benign ovarian cysts requiring surgical management.
2. Women who choose laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy voluntarily sign a surgical consent form.
3. Women participating in this study recognize three hemostatic methods and are ready to randomly accept one of them.
4. Women aged between 18 and 40 years old.
5. It was diagnosed by ultrasound as unilateral or bilateral benign ovarian cysts with a maximum diameter of 4-8cm. The nature of the cysts is ultimately confirmed by postoperative pathological examination.
6. Women with no previous history of ovarian surgery, chemotherapy, or pelvic radiation therapy.
7. Patients with no history of endocrine disorders such as hyperprolactinemia, hypothyroidism, or hyperthyroidism, and no history of endocrine therapy within 6 months before laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy.

Exclusion Criteria

1. Polycystic ovary syndrome.
2. Pregnancy or lactation period.
3. Women with active pelvic inflammatory disease, genital or extragenital malignant tumors.
4. Women who have undergone two or more pelvic or abdominal surgeries.
5. Evidence of premature ovarian failure or premature menopause, such as AMH<1ng/ml.
6. Conversion to open surgery.
7. Women who refuse to sign informed consent or are unable to attend follow-up regularly.
8. Cysts that do not originate from the ovaries or have the characteristics of malignant tumors.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Antral Follicle Count (AFC)	Preoperative quantity and postoperative quantity for 1, 3, and 6 months	Antral follicle count (AFC) generally refers to the basic follicles in ovaries, which have not yet begun to develop. If the number of AFC is within the normal range (usually 5-10), it indicates that the ovarian reserve function is normal. If the number is low, it generally means that the ovarian reserve function is relatively low. If the number is high, it may be caused by polycystic ovary syndrome. Besides, AFC can be detected through ultrasound examination, and the number of AFC can directly reflect the ovarian reserve of each ovary.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH)	Preoperative level and postoperative level at 1, 3, and 6 months	Anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH), which can be detected through blood tests, is considered a reliable marker produced by ovarian granulosa cells. The level of AMH indirectly reflects the number of ovarian follicular pools and the joint reserve of both ovaries. In addition, the level of AMH fluctuates less throughout the menstrual cycle. Besides, AMH is almost unrelated to the menstrual cycle and is not affected by gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists or oral contraceptives.
