Brief Answer:
very helpful

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, thanks for trusting health care magic.
I understand your confusion related to the issue.
Yes it will surely help and may result in total resolution of cyst or at least diminution to a minimal size which will eventually disappear by itself.
This pill pack helps by controlling the hormone imbalance which is the root cause of these cysts.
Take it for consecutive 3 months and then get a repeat scan for size assessment.
All the best.
Regards
Dr Manisha
