Patient's question:
I recently feel severe lower abdominal pain. The hospital conducted a thorough examination and said it was a corpus luteum cyst. Now, sometimes I experience nausea and vomiting again. Also, frequent urination and defecation, which I feel are interfering with my normal life. Sometimes I feel extremely dizzy, have blurred vision, and even faint. I haven't paid much attention to it before, but now it's just a dull pain in the lower abdomen, which is very uncomfortable.What kind of help is needed: What are the treatment methods for corpus luteum cysts?
Doctor's answer:
When the follicle matures, its surface breaks, releasing the egg, and the remaining cavity becomes a corpus luteum. The corpus luteum grows and reaches a mature peak, expanding. If it does not expand and instead shrinks, it may form a corpus luteum cyst. Corpus luteum cysts are usually less than 5 cm in diameter. Typically, they naturally disappear within 2 to 3 months. If a with a diameter of less than 5 cm is detected, it is likely a corpus luteum cyst, and medication is usually ineffective. It is possible to wait and see for 2 to 3 months. If it persists or shrinks, consider an ovarian tumor or an unexpanded corpus luteum cyst, which may lead to rupture and bleeding, requiring surgical treatment.
