Does anyone know if you really have to abstain from sex when you have a corpus luteum cyst?
thanks michell ur information is really got me relax. thanx alot.
When I miscarried, they also found an ovarian cyst. Both the ER doctor and my OBYGN said the cyst had nothing to do with the miscarriage and are a normal part of the reproductive cycle. If they doctor says it's nothing to worry about then it must not be too big. If you get any pain though, you shouldn't hesitate to go the ER. Every now and then I get sharp pains on my left side, which I believe is due to the small cysts on my left ovaries.
I had cyst at the begining of my pregnancy in my uterus and on my ovaries they dissapeared they said its normal.
I have had cysts on my left and right ovarys. I had them before i got pregnant and i now have a small pregnancy cysts on my right ovary. The pregnancy cysts are nothing to worry about and should go at some point so my doctor said they sometimes get bigger or smaller but they are quite common when you are pregnant. Please read the info i found on the net for you:-
Many women go for a routine ultrasound or pelvic examination early in their pregnancy and come away with the surprise finding of an ovarian cyst. Usually, this cyst comes from the corpus luteum. After an egg is released from the ovary, the corpus luteum is responsible for making the hormone progesterone. It is this hormone that prepares the uterus for pregnancy.
A typical corpus luteum is round and fluid-filled and can range in size from less than two centimeters (about an inch) to six centimeters or more. On ultrasound, a fluid-filled (cystic) structure greater than three centimeters is technically classified as an ovarian cyst, even though it may well represent a normal finding.
Ovarian cysts usually don't cause any symptoms. In fact, corpus luteum cysts appear toward the end of the menstrual cycle, last into early pregnancy, and then usually resolve over a period of time without any special treatment.
