I am in peri stage ,I have 2 ovarian cysts one 4.5cm found 2019 and one new one just found this month at 3cm , I have been on HRT everol and conti patches since 2018 . Does the Hrt encourage cysts to develop and grow as they seem to be growing a cm a month? When the time is right for me to go on contious hrt when I am post menopausal will that slow down the cysts as I wont be having periods?

Hi! I don't know whether HRT encourages cysts or whether the person would have developed cysts as they age.
What does your clinician advise? Were you scanner prior to beginning HRT?
You won't know if you are through peri-menopause if you are using HRT. Have you felt better since beginning it?
Hormone Replacement Therapy : many forget the word 'replacement' ......... taken to ease symptoms usually caused due to a drop in oestrogen which the body was making but has gradually eased off naturally. Some symptoms can be devastating so if HRT helps ........ ?
