Can an ovarian cyst cause bleeding in early pregnancy?

I have had various spotting during this pregnancy but my HCG levels are rising. It is still too early to see anything via ultrasound but ectopic has been rulled out and they also found a large cyst on my left ovary. Could this be the reason for the spotting?

Yes it is possible for an ovarian cyst to cause bleeding in a pregnancy, but it may or may not be it in your case. Some woman do have various times of spotting in their pregnancy due to many different reasons and go on to have a healthy full term baby.
I would definitely talk to your doctor more about the cyst and keep an eye on the bleeding. If it ever turns bright red that means that it is not old blood which means you need to call your doctor ASAP.
Good luck with everything!
