The largest follicle bursts and releases the egg. Each follicle is filled with fluid that nourishes the egg. Every cycle, several egg-containing sacs (follicles) start to ripen. Your ovaries are primed to release an egg every month ( ovulation). There are two common types of functional ovarian cysts: follicular cysts and corpus luteum cysts. Functional cysts are usually small, less than 5cm (1.9in) across. If a functional ovarian cyst is found during pregnancy, it shouldn't cause you or your baby any problems. Across all women of child-bearing age, only one in 1,000 will have a cyst that becomes malignant. These are rare, and, even more rarely, become cancerous (malignant).
