No, not nessessarily. I was diagnosed with Poly Cystic ovarian disease and they gave me Birth Control Pills and Metformin- they keep the cysts at one position, prevent growing and so on. Sometimes they can cause sterility, in those cases first hormonal treatment is administered for a period of time and if this doesn't help- then it's the surgery. It's usually done with a laparoscope- so no scars, no post-op pain, home on the same day and antibiotics for a few days just to prevent possible infection.
