birth control prevents ovarian cyst??? PLEASE ANSWER?? Someone?
I have been on Ocella birth control (pill) since around aug.2008. In November i was diagnosed with a pre-cancerous skin lesion on my vulva but got that taken care of. At the time, i was also diagnosed with a little cyst on my ovary..nothing major, it went away. But here lately, it feels like im starting to get another one on the same exact spot. I have read that birth control is supposed to prevents these since Estrogen and progestin birth control pills prevent ovulation. Functional ovarian cysts do not form without ovulation? I still have regular periods, 6-7days long, sometimes their a little heavier than usual, my last one i actually had alot of clots, is this not a good sign?? And does this mean im still ovulating or fertile because of the cyst i have had??
Birth control pills do tend to prevent cysts. But not 100%. There are different reasons for cysts, too, not just hormonal. You should go to the doctor and get this cyst checked out. It’s highly unlikely you’re fertile while taking the pill, despite any cysts.
Ovarian cysts may temporarily be relieved by birth control. But understand that when you stop them they will come back or another related complaint will develop.

The best way to prevent ovarian cysts is by controlling your hormone levels with diet and exercise. Birth control may help for a while…but what happens when you stop them. Problem may come back and with a vengeance.
