Last October I had laparoscopic surgery to remove a dermoid ovarian cyst and my left ovary. Now they found a similar 6.4 cm cyst on my right ovary. Is there any way to shrink this cyst since I'm unmarried and want to preserve my fertility?

Hormonal cysts can sometimes be shrunk with birth control pills. Fertility-sparing surgery like cystectomy is an option if it grows or causes symptoms.

I'm taking Novelon for 21 days as prescribed by my doctor. My gynecologist told me to come in on the first day of my period, but I'm wondering how long it'll take to see improvement with my PCOS. Could you let me know what to expect?

Novelon is often prescribed to help regulate menstrual cycles and manage symptoms of PCOS. It may take a few cycles (usually 2-3 months) to see noticeable improvements in hormonal balance and menstrual regularity. It's important to follow up with your gynecologist for further guidance and monitoring as your treatment progresses.
