Patient's question:
During ovulation, there is an increase in leukorrhea, mixed with the leukorrhea, slightly yellowish and reddish. No other symptoms are present. The menstrual cycle is not very regular, sometimes it is 27 days, sometimes it is 45 days. I have received intermittent treatment 3 or 4 times, but it didn't seem to be effective. A rectal ultrasound was performed, and there were no obvious abnormalities found in the uterus and appendages. A check of the five sex hormones revealed luteal phase deficiency, with LH as low as 0.6 IU/L. I have taken both Western and Chinese medicine hormones, but the effect is not significant. Is there a corpus luteum cyst during ovulation?Doctor's answer:
A corpus luteum is formed when an unfertilized egg's oocyte discharges and, if not ovulated, transforms into a corpus albicans, which then exits with menstruation. It can usually resolve on its own, but unovulated corpus lutea are pathological. You can have a B done right after your period ends each month. If it persists, consult your doctor for treatment, as it may interfere with delivery. It seems like the oocyte grows but fails to discharge, ultimately forming a corpus luteum.
