Patient's question:
A few days ago, I suddenly felt severe pain in my lower abdomen and also felt nauseous, constantly feeling like I wanted to vomit.Jude's urination and defecation became significantly more frequent than usual, and I also occasionally felt dizzy and lightheaded. The pain was unbearable, so I went to the hospital for an ultrasound. The result revealed that it was actually a corpus luteum cyst.What kind of help is needed: How is a corpus luteum cyst formed?
Doctor's answer:
If the corpus luteum persists or grows, or if the corpus luteum hematoma contains a large amount of blood, which is then calcified, it can lead to corpus luteum cysts. Due to the continuous secretion of progesterone by the cysts, the menstrual cycle is often delayed. If the cyst ruptures, it can cause abdominal pain and vaginal bleeding, which is very similar to the rupture of an ectopic pregnancy.1. Lutein cyst: The corpus luteum develops due to an imbalance in endocrine secretion caused by pituitary gonadotropin. It is particularly active in early pregnancy, with a larger cavity containing more fluid. If the cavity size decreases and the diameter drops below 2 centimeters, it is considered a corpus luteum cyst.
2. White body cyst: It is mostly derived from corpus luteum cysts and cystic corpus luteum. It may also form when a normal corpus luteum degenerates into a white body due to certain factors.
