The pill should stpo the production of most cysts but not all. When a
cyst is drained, it may re-fill due to the lining of the cyst remaining.
That's the negative to draining of cysts. If this cyst recurs, it may
need to be excised in the future.
Hope this helps and write back anytime for more information.
