Hello again, Nikibaby.

Thank you for posting.

Although oral contraceptives can greatly reduce the formation of ovarian cysts, ovarian cysts may still form during oral contraceptive use. Is there some reason you don't want to take the advice of your private doctor and stay on your current birth control? Switching brands is not likely to shrink an existing cyst. Which might be why your private doctor did not recommend it. Speak to your doctor about your cyst, and about switching brands. It's also a good idea to stick to one doctor (unless you are seeking a 2nd opinion). A woman can switch brands but the question is, do you really need to. A new birth control pill can mean a new period of adjustment and possible side effects. Your doctor can advise you further.
