Chocolate cyst in pregnancy

I had a cyst which was noticed on the ultrasound when i first got pregnant. The cyst seemed to have disappeared in later pregnancy as it did not show up on the ultrasound. The pregnancy went well and i delivered a year ago through caesarian section for other reasons - however during the operation it was noticed that the cyst was still present and was removed together with the ovary. Lab tests indicated that this was a 10cm chocolate cyst.Following the delivery (circa 1 month later) I started undergoing treatment so that hopefully chocalate cysts will not develop on the other ovary. This consists of the 'pill' which i am taking every single day of the month - this stops menstruation completely.

I was trying to do some resarch on chocolate cysts in pregnancy in order to assess the chances of success of having another baby, but found nothing. I would love to be directed to some website where i can read about this condition or perhaps some other browsers who can share the same or similar condition.
