Does A Clot Mean That A Cyst Has Appeared Or Not?

A myPCOSteam Member asked a question 💭
Warrington, UK

hi ladies,

I was wondering if it could mean that either I've already got an ovarian cyst or if another one is starting to appear.
I have also noticed that my periods have gone back to being really heavy and painful again like they were before my laparoscopic cystectomy just over 2 years ago.
