Patient's question:
I've been married for two years, and I finally got pregnant recently. The whole family is very happy, but lately I've been feeling some pain in my lower abdomen and sometimes dizzy, with poor appetite. During my prenatal check-up at the hospital, the doctor discovered a cyst in my ovary during the ultrasound and said it was a corpus luteum cyst. I want to get it treated quickly, afraid it might affect the baby inside.What kind of help I need: What kind of medicine is good for treating a corpus luteum cyst?
Doctor's answer:
Many pregnant women have cysts. As long as the cysts do not grow during pregnancy and do not interfere with your physical condition, there is no problem. It is essential to have regular check-ups during pregnancy. Since cysts continuously secrete progesterone, they often shorten the menstrual cycle. If the cyst ruptures, it may cause abdominal pain and vaginal bleeding, similar to an ectopic pregnancy rupture. If the cyst grows excessively, it is recommended to go to the hospital for a thorough examination and follow the doctor's advice for proper treatment. If it is a physiological ovarian cyst, treatment is generally not required. If it is a pathological ovarian cyst and is small, medication can be used to suppress it.
