Dermoid cysts are the most common benign ovarian tumour of young women. They tend to grow slowly causing little or no damage to the ovary or other organs unless they get too large. I am aware of no proven association with any medication and would encourage you to continue with reatment regimens as needed. The dermoid needs to be followed and removed when needed.
