How is a corpus luteum cyst treated?

Patient's question:

Menstruation came, and then it came again. Initially, my period was every 40 days. I had an ultrasound, and it said there was a corpus luteum cyst on the right side of the appendix, measuring 6 cm by 5 cm. Hello, what should I do if the corpus luteum cyst cannot be removed?

Doctor's answer:

If a benign ovarian tumor is discovered through careful examination, its size and relationship to the menstrual cycle should be confirmed. If an ovarian cyst grows too quickly or is too large, it should be surgically removed or completely eliminated as soon as possible. If some cysts are dermoid cysts, they may recur with pedicle inversion, leading to acute abdominal pain. Some cysts have thin walls and are prone to spontaneous rupture, causing acute abdominal pain. Therefore, pelvic examinations should be conducted before preparing to conceive. If the cyst is larger than 5 centimeters, early pregnancy should be implemented after surgery. Corpus luteum cysts are benign, but as the uterus grows during pregnancy, the stem of the corpus luteum cyst may become completely twisted, causing severe abdominal pain. The diet for liver cysts includes red-colored vegetables and fruits such as carrots, tomatoes, jujubes, and dragon fruits.
