Will ovarian cysts affect ovulation and cause miscarriage?

Ovarian cysts are difficult to diagnose in the early stages. Ovarian cysts in postmenopausal women are mostly malignant and often accompanied by ascites. So, will ovarian cysts affect ovulation? Will they cause miscarriage?

Ovarian cysts affect female ovulation, mainly because the surface of the ovary is covered with a layer of white membrane. Physiologically, every month an egg gradually develops from the germinal layer under the white membrane into a follicle, and finally breaks through the white membrane into the pelvic cavity. This process is ovulation. It usually takes 13-15 days for an egg to mature. An egg discharged early is immature, and an egg discharged too late cannot be fertilized.

Multiple eggs develop at the same time, and if there is no mature egg by the time of ovulation, ovulation is impossible. This is also the pathological reason why patients with polycystic ovary syndrome have long menstrual cycles and infrequent menstruation. Occasionally, a mature egg is released, and pregnancy is possible, so polycystic ovary syndrome is called infertility.

The outer layer of the ovarian membrane is dense and thick. After the egg matures, it cannot break through the thick and dense membrane in time. Some eggs will eventually ovulate, but it has been more than 15 days. The eggs discharged are over-mature eggs, and some cannot break through the membrane to ovulate. This is clinically called unruptured luteinized syndrome.

Ovarian cysts have a great impact on pregnancy. Ovarian cysts are broadly classified as a type of ovarian tumor. It can occur in women of all ages. The disease has a great impact on pregnant women and fetuses. It is easy to cause miscarriage in the early stage; it is easy to cause ovarian cyst pedicle torsion in the middle stage of pregnancy; and it is easy to cause birth canal obstruction and dystocia in the late stage of pregnancy.
