Maybe: Each month a cyst forms on the ovary in a woman of reproductive age. This cyst ruptures and an egg is released. This is a normal process. Sometimes a functional cyst can grow to a large size and cause problems. Sometimes there are cystic growths on the ovary that are not "normal." the best way to tell if a cyst is present is through imaging such as a us. It is hard to tell based on symptoms.
