I have no clue but I’m having surgery to remove one tomorrow. 😭 I actually just came on here to post about it and seen your post first thing.

I take birth control to regulate my hormones which can be good for ovarian cysts. I've heard that you need to keep an eye on your diet to make sure you aren't eating too much estrogen that is naturally occurring in foods. They also say pelvic floor excerises can keep cysts from growing and rupturing. That being said, these are "solutions" and are just stuff that might work for some people

Birth control has always been highly recommended to me by doctors for my PCOS, especially after my (similar) surgery. I bet watching intake of foods with estrogen is also a great idea!
