Meantime, there was a causal effect of genetically predicted depression on ovarian cysts (OR=1.327.; 95% CI: 1.197, 1.470; p< 0.001). Sensitivity analyses such as MR-Egger regression analysis and MR-PRESSO indicated that the IVW results were robust and reliable.Conclusion: This study suggested since ovarian cysts and female depression are mutually causal, the comorbidity of ovarian cysts and depression in women should be actively attended to and given appropriate prevention and treatment besides the diagnosis and treatment of depression or ovarian cysts.Keywords: Mendelian randomization, depression, ovarian cyst, genetic variation
