If an ovarian cyst produces estrogen or
progesterone hormones, it is called a
functional cyst. Functional cysts act as
natural hormonal contraception by
preventing ovulation. Functional cyst
usually persists 2-3 months and then
fertility is established again. If there
are a lot of small cysts in both ovaries,
you might be experiencing polycystic
ovarian syndrome (PCOS). During PCOS,
fertility is compromised and requires
therapy and treatment.
