A member asked:
Need 2nd opinion on ovarian cyst. having problems with menstruation/digestion & painful cysts. can this be caused by changing birth control pills?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pill vs.Ovarian cyst: The oral contraceptive pill actually suppresses small ovarian cysts by hormonal regulation. If you were not taking the pill for a substantial amount of time, then they can re-form.
