A member asked:

What are some prescribed medications used for ovarian cyst?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

For prevention...: The ob-gyn doctor may recommend birth control pills to reduce the chance of new cysts developing in future menstrual cycles. Birth control pills regulate the menstrual cycle, to prevent the formation of follicles that can turn into cysts, and to possibly (but typically not) reduce the size of an existing cyst.
