Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
If bleeding is hormone related, yes it will stop. Not only bleeding but cyst also may disappear with progesterone treatment. But if it is due to pelvic inflammatory disease it won’t.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Progyluton is an estrogen hormone-containing pill and will cause suppression of your periods. But before you take anything for the cyst the cause, size, and nature of the cyst needs to be determined.
I would also like to know your age? Since when have you had these cysts? The sizes of the cysts the number of cysts in each ovary? And if you have been having irregular periods? Have you done any blood test to know if these cysts are due to hormonal imbalance and any blood test to detect tumor markers like Ca125, LDH?
The main factors determining the treatment of cyst is your age and size of the cyst. If you are less than 40 years and the cyst are less than 5 cm then you need not take any treatment for them. Just a repeat scan after 6 months would suffice. But if the ovarian size is more than 5 cm then you may need a laparoscopy to determine the nature of the cyst. In both cases, hormonal pills are not to be given for cysts. So please get back to us with your details to help us guide you further.
