Patient's question:
Married for two years without getting pregnant, I finally got pregnant this time, but discovered a tumor in my ovary, measuring 7.105.27cm. I am very worried. It is said to be a corpus luteum cyst, and they told me not to worry too much. What is the cause of a corpus luteum cyst?Doctor's answer:
During early pregnancy, a careful MRI examination revealed an ovarian cyst, measuring 7.105.27 cm. It is considered a corpus luteum cyst. Generally, corpus luteum cysts are smaller than 5 cm. Your cyst is larger, requiring close and careful monitoring. Most corpus luteum cysts disappear after the third month of early pregnancy or after a miscarriage. Cysts generally have no adverse effects on fetal growth and development. However, if there are abnormal conditions such as recurrence or rupture, surgical treatment may be required, which could lead to complications like miscarriage. Therefore, during early pregnancy, it is important to pay attention to rest and avoid strenuous exercise, especially sudden movements like lifting feet abruptly or frequent squatting and standing. If severe abdominal pain occurs, it is necessary to seek immediate hospitalization for examination.
