Hello My husband and I are TTC. I have a mild form of PCOS (just longer cycles) and I got my first two ovarian cysts, which according to my doctor are from stopping BC. I haven't had my period since I stopped the BC in Early September. I'm wondering if it is possible to get pregnant and have ovarian cysts at the same time?
