Hey,

It shouldn't affect your fertility greatly as you have the two ovaries, as long as the other stuff is working fine you should be ok to concieve naturally. The best answers you'll get is probably after you've had a lap and the docs had a good luck inside.

I know it's easy for me to say, but try not to worry too much. Both my aunt and my nan were told they'd never concieve! My nan had five children and my aunt had three!

Big hugs and I hope you're feeling better soon x x x x

Hi Becky

I went through a period where both of my ovaries were taking turns to sprout cysts. Sometimes they did it at the same time.

I was still falling pregnant at the drop of a hat despite them trying their darndest to stop me! :)

Try not to stress too much. Easy for me to say, I know, but stress will make things 10 times harder

Good luck
