Can cysts on your overies course pain and discomfort?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Cysts, especially large ones, can definitely cause pain and discomfort. Most typically they have to measure around 4-5cm for women to notice them. It's normal to have physiological cysts every month that can measure up to 3cm.
