Angelique And Breast Cysts

I have been taking Angelique for about 9 months. I am 57 years old and was having extreme vaginal dryness and hot flashes. Two months after beginning Angelique, my mammogram and a sonogram showed cysts in my right breast. 6 months later, one cyst had grown by 5mm. The cyst was aspirated and benign. My doctor says it is my choice if I want to get off the Angelique. Will I be facing multiple cyst aspirations and possible cancer if I continue the Angelique?

There is no way anyone can give you a definitive answer to that, hormones have been known to cause these types of problems in some women, but there is also no way to say for sure that cysts would not have developed if you weren't taking it, either.

Angeliq is an HRT that contains Drospirenone and Estradiol and HRT is not recommended for everyone.

What has your doctor said is the likelihood of recurrence if you continue to use it?
