Answer
Sometimes, yes, certain types of ovarian cysts can play a role in infertility, but it's important to know that many cysts do not. At SCI Hospital, we explain that common 'functional' cysts, which form during a normal menstrual cycle, are usually harmless and don't affect fertility. However, cysts associated with conditions like Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) or endometriosis (called endometriomas) can be linked to difficulties in getting pregnant because these underlying conditions affect ovulation or damage reproductive organs. If an ovarian cyst is found, we will determine its type and discuss any potential impact on your fertility.
