Hi,
Welcome to HCM. I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Oral contraceptive pills is associated with a slightly higher risk of breast cancer and venous disorders. But you can safely take it with supervision of your gynaecologist if your cyst is not cancerous.
Hope I have answered your query. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help
