My cyst is not pilonidal because it is on my lower right back and it's hairless. My dermatologist told me to use hot compresses to drain it, which worked. I am very sensitive to hormonal fluctuations; I don't think that it's a coincidence that my cyst grew biggest (about the size of a pingpong ball) when I was estrogen-dominant aka progesterone-deficient. It (and the depression that came at the same time) didn't recur after I started on bioidentical progesterone until perimenopause when I was estrogen-dominant again. I haven't had a cyst since I've balanced my hormones post-menopause. Our highly chemicalized world exposes us to high levels of estrogen. Bioidenticals can create balance (after trial and error to figure out doses) and are available from a compounding pharmacist. CBW
