Brief Answer:
Please take medications and get ultrasound scan done after 3 months

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX,
Thanks for writing in to us.

I have read through your query in details.
A poly cystic ovary (PCOS) is a treatable condition. It happens due to imbalance of hormones and can present as increase in body weight, increased body hair and irregular or absent monthly periods. The other simple cyst in right ovary is also a treatable condition. If the right ovary cyst is less than 3 cm in size then there is no serious concern.

OVRAL-G tab contains norgestrel 0.5 mg, ethinyl estradiol 0.05 mg and is given for poly cystic ovaries and ovarian cysts.

I am unable to know the exact composition of chromi fem please reconfirm the medication name and composition details. I suppose it is a nutritional supplement.

Please avoid mental stress and stress is also responsible for hormonal imbalances in women at your age.

After taking the medications for 3 months, it is suggested that you get another review ultrasound scan done to follow up on your treatment.

Hope your query is answered.
Do write back if you have any doubts.

Brief Answer:
Your cyst is slightly big but medications to be given first

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX,
Thanks for writing back with an update.

I have found details of Chromifem tablet. It is a supplement and contains the following
Chromium Picolinate 500 mcg
Alfacalcidol 0.5 mcg
N-Acetylcysteine 600 mg
Biotin 1.0 mg

Chromifem helps in reducing symptoms of PCOS and should help treat your condition when taken with ovral G.

The 7.5 x 7.5 cm cyst is right ovary is a big one and first medications should be given for 3 months and then reviewed for decrease in size. In my experience cysts less than 3 cm in size resolve spontaneously. However please do not worry as even a 7.5 cm cyst due to hormonal problems can reduce significantly after taking treatment.

Medications are always the first choice of treatment when you have symptoms like weight increase of 10 kgs over 6 months. Surgery is done only as a last step when medications do not show response or the cyst is causing severe pain. Since your cyst is 7.5 cms in size therefore it is important to do a review ultrasound scan after 3 months of medications.

Hope your query is answered.
Do write back if you have any doubts.

Brief Answer:
You will not have a pregnancy as long you are on Ovral G

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX,
Thanks for writing back with an update.

Ovral G is combined oral contraceptive pill and also given in treatment of PCOS. As it is an oral contraceptive also therefore chances of having a pregnancy is rare. It is most likely that you will not get a pregnancy as long you take Ovral G.

Later on if you get pregnant once treatment is complete, there is no risk to your pregnancy. The right ovary cyst will also most likely reduce in size.

Hope your query is answered.
Do write back if you have any doubts.
