Patient's question:
I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Is a corpus luteum cyst serious?Doctor's answer:
If it is a corpus luteum cyst, it is not serious. Corpus luteum cysts are usually physiological cysts, but they can disappear on their own when your next menstrual period comes. Treatment is usually not necessary. You don't need to do anything right now. Wait until after your next menstrual period and when the bleeding has stopped, then have an ultrasound follow-up. If it has gone away by then, there is no problem. If it is still there, it would be pathological. For pathological cases, medication may need to be considered. It may require treatment for three months, and if it is smaller than 5 centimeters, surgery may be needed.
