Facts about ovarian cyst.

Dear readers,

I have recently diagnosed with corpus luteum cyst which situated in the ovary. The function of corpus lutuem is to release mature follicle ( egg ) from the ovary into the uterus every month for fertilization. If fertilization occurs, corpus luteum will continue to supply nutrient to the egg untill is fully embed into the uterus wall. Corpus luteum will then degenerate after placenta is fully develop and able to supply nutrient to the growing embryo.

However, if fertilization did not occur, corpus luteum will eventually degenerates. In my case, it didn't, as much as it continue to grow, fluid begin to accumulate and it grow bigger, blood pool is also acumulated inside. As i mentioned corpus luteum cyst is harmless. It will subside within 3 weeks, as well as the range of size. In my case, it did not subside, it grow more than a normal range (5.24 by 5.36 cm in diameter) resulting it to rupture and this is very dangerous.

From my experience, i did not felt massive pain, is only when in the toilet, and after food the pain will contract. By right, information given from doctor saying that i should have massive or even unexplained terrible pain due to the rupture cyst. Well, i guess i have been blessed from the god. Therefore, surgery had to be done right a way, before the blood pool spread into other organ.
