A member asked:

34 yr old female. obese but always had a very regular period. nothing now since nove 2. found left ovarian cyst. could that be why? bw not in yet.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: Ovarian cysts can definitely interfere with cycle. Being overweight/obese can definitely cause women to miss cycles as well, due to excess estrogen. Being obese as you know puts at increased risk for a lot of cancers and other health problems. At 34 you can do it, make the change and get to healthy weight. You want to live long!
