A functional ovarian cyst forms because of slight changes in the way the ovary makes or releases an egg. There are two types of these cysts: • A follicular cyst occurs when a sac on the ovary does not release an egg, and the sac swells up with fluid. • A luteal cyst occurs when the sac releases an egg and then reseals and fills with fluid.
