Does A Dermoid Ovarian Cyst Cause Hormonal Imbalance?
Can a dermoid ovarian cyst cause hormonal imbalance and/or menstrual irregularities (shortening cycle)? I also have a condition called geographic tongue and have read that hormonal imbalances can contribute to the tongue flare ups. I am wondering if there is a connection. Thank you
