Long term use of combined pill (estrogen) = liver filled with lesions - Any experience?

I have been crying all week. I am sad, angry, frustrated, and also scared.

Its going to be a lot of information. If you just want to skip to the biggest question I have, it’s at the bottom of the post.

I have had a whole medical thing going on last year. Pain under right rib, they found a gallstone, I had surgery on 1 nov. First week of december I started feeling better, before ~13 december everything started getting bad again. Konstant pain under rib was back. Somewhat different, but feeling like my liver was hurting.

I complain about feeling like something was under my right rib before summer last year, my doctor ordered blood tests, that he never said anything about, so I assume they were ok based on how quick he has responded these last 5 months. I also had an ultrasound before surgery, and another 1 day post op, no mentione of anything besides the stone they removed with my gallbladder.

Also for information I was put on BP and cholesterol meds back in April, and have lost weight, changed my diet and been more active. Also changed from microgynon (combined pill) to Slinda (progrsteron only) in september. Started Microgynon when I was around 15, I am now 33, turning 34 this summer.

I had an MRI on monday. I have mild fatty liver and many cysts on my liver, the largest measured at 36mm. The rapport did not say how many, but 10-14 or so. The rest between 4-20mm.

I have not gone to the doctor enough is my conclusion, nobody ever told me, hey, its been 10 years, maybe you should not be on estrogen this long, it can cause liver tumors (benign and cancer). Nobody ever thought to mentione it to me. The MRI results seem to say that this is normal for long term use of BC. Why the heck was I not ever told this!? 😭 So I’m scared its already bc cancer. The MRI could determine that some of them have fat inside of them. But they recomended a new MRI with contrast. They can’t do that so I had to go back to the public healthcare. They have ignored the recomendation, and I am going in for a fibroscan, so ultrasound to look at fat in my liver. Just not even planning to look at the lesions it seems.

I can’t make it make sense. I have more or less done whats recomended to reverse fatty liver, since april last year. If that has worked, then how bad was it before, and why did not the blood tests or ultrasound pick up on it? I was not a priorty with the public healthcare, they put me on painmeds and told me it would be around 6 months before they could do surgery on my. With the help from a private clinique I «only» used painmeds around the clock for around 9 weeks total. What if this is what damaged my liver? What if the doctors orders did this 🥺 What if simply removing the gallbladder is why this has happened, my liver just can’t deal. If its happened this quick how long untill cirrosis?

I feel lost, I feel hopeless. I am sad, angry, frustrated. Also long wait time. I know I am lucky to have free healthcare. But waiting for 5-6 weeks when you are scared is not fun.

I feel like I’m not being taken seriously. I am scared something is wrong, and also… I feel like something is wrong. The MRI could also say that there were some swollen lympnodes, and I also know I have had mild almost ish fever every night for weeks now. And if I do anything kind of anything, my temp seem to spile up to an actual fever. Like I was out with my family for dinner, about an hour, and came home with a fever. I should be able to go out for dinner after work without ending up with a fever. I am scared there is cancer.

So if you skipped most of that: Do you have any experience with lesions on the liver, after long term use of hormonal birthcontroll, spesifically ones that contain estrogen?
