Cerazette - spotting or adjustment?

I saw a new specialist yesterday. During the ultrasound she saw a cyst on my right ovary, which wasn't there a month ago (or maybe missed at A&E??). This is the third cyst in 2 months. On Cerazette (75mg) since June. She said I should come back in August, prescribed painkillers. Next, she wants to put me on the combined, since the pop causes spotting (and bloating) that I've had since day 1. Spotting supposedly causes pain, as blood drips into the pelvis -- she said.

I've also read somewhere that spotting and pain is sometimes due to one's own oestrogen is strong enough to stimulate the inner uterus to some point where the desogestrel isn't strong enough to prevent shedding. Should the dose then be doubled?

Has anyone had any experiences with this?
