No. Cysts do not procude HCG. Only a pregnancy can do that. Have you had a blood pregnancy test? Cysts are quite common and usually nothing to worry about. If you had an ultrasound to see your cysts, didn't they check to see if a fetus was growing too? You're able to see the fetus as early as 5-6 weeks.

yes that secrets the hCG hormone which is the test specific gonadotropin
