Doctors do not know the exact cause of the appearance of the corpus luteum cyst , since this process does not depend on age, sex life and infections. There is an opinion that there is a malfunction in the metabolic process, and the bursting follicle does not go completely out. It is the clotted blood that has remained inside and turns into a "bruise", or rather, into the corpus luteum.
In women in the situation there is such a nuisance. The cyst does not deliver much discomfort, and even helps the production of progesterone in the body. No operational action is taken, as everything resolves independently. By the way, during intercourse, the occurrence of painful sensations from the side of education is possible. The size of the corpus luteum after ovulation should not exceed four centimeters in diameter. If the cyst becomes impressive, then with a passionate sexual intercourse its rupture is possible. Discomfort and a feeling of tightness in the lower abdomen are also possible.
It is very simple to detect a cyst, it is enough to conduct an ultrasound examination of the pelvis. Further, to maintain the health of the body and improve metabolic processes, you can undergo a course of strengthening therapy. Once again, it is worth recalling that the operation in this case is not needed.
The size of the corpus luteum during pregnancy is from ten to thirty millimeters in diameter. This norm is established in the first weeks and before fertilization. Let's not forget that the hormonal background in expectant mothers is constantly changing, respectively, the size of the corpus luteum during pregnancy will fluctuate.
It is worth noting that the corpus luteum cyst is not an oncological disease, does not belong to a precancerous condition and is not able to become malignant. Relapses are sometimes possible, but it will disappear again. It takes time to resolve it, three menstrual cycles are enough, and there will be no trace of it. Some women get rid of this trouble after the first menstruation.
However, the size of the corpus luteum during pregnancy can be very small, which causes new troubles. After all, this is direct evidence of too low progesterone production, which entails the risk of miscarriage, however, it is successfully replenished with drugs. Therefore, insufficiency of the corpus luteum during pregnancy should alert the expectant mother. In such a situation, you should consult a doctor and talk about the problem. After all, now you are responsible for the life of another little man who wants to be born as soon as possible.
During treatment or after the detection of a cyst, sexual intercourse is not prohibited. But there is a condition: it is worth warning the partner that delicacy is needed, as a sudden movement can damage the capsule. You also need to abandon gymnastic exercises, yoga, sports. Severity and physical activity fade into the background, as there is a slight risk of ovarian torsion.
Note that the size of the corpus luteum during pregnancy should be measured at the eighteenth week. For this purpose, pelvic ultrasound is performed if there are no contraindications noted by the attending physician. At this time, the placenta can take on the role of the corpus luteum and produce progesterone.
It is necessary to reassure mothers that the cyst is completely safe for the fetus and does not come into contact with the baby. Therefore, all the requirements of doctors about the operation are redundant. If the doctor has already started talking about the intervention, then try to consult another specialist and find out his opinion, since each case is individual.
If the girl is not in position, then in the presence of a cyst, the test will also be negative. However, a delay of eight days is possible. That is, the corpus luteum does not affect the correctness of the test results.
