What is going on with ovarian cysts?

Patient's question:

Patient Gender:
Female
Patient Age:
30
Detailed Medical Condition and Purpose of Consultation:
I gave birth to my daughter via cesarean section, and during the surgery, it was discovered that I had cysts on both ovaries. The doctor performed cyst removal surgery on one side and cyst stripping on the other. Now, my menstruation is normal. I would like to ask, can I still get pregnant? How likely is it? Do I still need to take contraceptive measures?

Doctor's answer:

If your endocrine system is normal and the fallopian tube on the side that has not had an ovary removed is unobstructed, and your uterus is also normal, you should be able to get pregnant, but the chances will be reduced. This is because women typically ovulate once a month, with the ovaries alternating sides. Of course, I am referring to the general case, and there are exceptions. This is just my personal opinion and should be used for reference only.
