Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
Poly Cystic Ovarian Disease (pcod) is a very common disease in young child bearing age group patient .
Cysts are sometimes caused by hormonal changes. Femilon is a birth control pill , using birth control pills can sometimes help to regulate the hormone levels so the the cysts can be taken care of.Your doctor will likely want to come back after you have been on the femilon to see if the cyst is gone.
At that time the doctor may suggest you stop using the femilon ,or, if indicated you may need to continue it a longer period .
So need not to worry.
Your main fear is if it would not come back ?
This is a fear ,get rid of it .
Consult your gynecologist and deal according to condition without any fear.
Good luck for you.
