Can ovarian cysts affect ovulation?

Due to an ovarian cyst can ovulation be affect? Would I likely ovulate later or earlier?

Answer 1

Cysts can affect ovulation and depending on how many, size, etc it can prevent ovulation.

I have PCOS which is cysts on my ovaries and it has prevented ovulation but is easily treatable with medication...

It doesn't change when you ovulate it changes IF you ovulate...

Talk to your gyno.,..

Hope this helps
