Hi there wonder if any one can help me.i went for my scan today,2 weeks after mc,just to check all was normal,i stopped bleeding 3 days ago,and we have resumed sex.anyway at my scan she said yes all looks normal again,then she was going um,um to the nurse and said   corpus luteum ,and they both agreed,as i hate hospitals spent to much time there just wanted to get out,what does corpus luteum mean.is it to do with pregnancy or ov.dont really understand,thankyou so much...

Definition: After ovulation, the portion of the follicle that is left is called the corpus luteum (latin for white body). The corpus luteum makes progesterone which supports the uterine lining and, if conception occurs, the early pregnancy until the placenta can take over progesterone production. If conception does not occur, the corpus luteum quits making progesterone, the uterine lining sheds and menstruation occurs.



just copied this and pasted in case you didnt see it.so now im wondering maybe im on the tww now,as guessing i ov this week,been mateing like rabbits this week,so fingers crossed...
