Dr. Jeff Livingston answered

Specializes in Obstetrics and Gynecology

Unclear: It is not clear what you mean by a cyst covering up your ovaries. If you are referring to having multiple cysts that fill the ovaries as they do in polycystic ovarian syndrome then it is the hormonal imbalance that leads to the cysts and the irregular periods
