I have a 4.9 cm ovarian cyst on my left ovary and attached my scan report. Could you check and let me know if surgery is necessary or if it can be treated with medication? Also, is there a chance it might go away on its own with lifestyle changes?

Functional ovarian cysts usually go away without treatment. If your cyst is likely functional, your provider may suggest a wait-and-see approach. You may have a follow-up ultrasound within a few weeks or months after your diagnosis to see if your cyst is getting larger, smaller or changing in any other way.

I got my period on May 30th and was told to take Ovral L. When exactly should I start taking it, and is it okay to use if I'm thinking about getting pregnant in the future?

If you want to take Ovral L for contraception, start it on the first day of your period (May 30th), or as advised by your doctor. If you are planning for conception, you should stop taking Ovral L and give your body some time to adjust. Consult with your doctor about the best time to start trying to conceive after stopping birth control.
