Cyst on ovary or ovarian cyst is a fluid-inundated sac forming inside or on the ovaries though they can develop in any area of the body. Functional cyst is the commonest form developing during a woman’s monthlies and is of duo kinds – namely:

Follicle cysts which arise due to the sac not rupturing for releasing the egg. The pouch would then start increasing in size. Such form of cyst mostly subsides within one to three months.

Corpus luteum cysts develop due to the sac not dissolving; rather it would seal off following egg release. Accruement of fluids then takes place within the sac. Majority of such cysts disappear following some weeks. They could increase in size to nearly four inches. These atypically malignant cysts might emit blood or start twisting the ovary that can get rather painful. Several medications deployed for ovulation induction like Serophene, Clomid could augment risk of cysts developing.

The tissue might affix to the ovary & start forming a growth. Presence of such cysts could be causal to pains at the time of sexual intercourse & when a woman menstruates.
