Ovarian cyst

Shanise

I’m on birth control and have a follicular cyst in one of my ovaries. My Dr informed me that you really only get cyst on your ovaries when you ovulate. But BC is supposed to suppress ovulation so i am really confused on how I could’ve gotten a cyst on my ovaries. He feels my body will absorb it and wants to see me back in 3 months. Has anyone dealt with cyst on there ovary while on BC?
