Are there any symptoms of ruptured ovarian follicle?

The follicle is an important component of the female ovary and is the place where eggs are produced. Therefore, the health of the follicle is an important issue related to a woman's ability to become pregnant. However, many women know very little about follicles and do not understand when they ovulate. The follicle will rupture during ovulation. So, are there any symptoms of follicle rupture? What are the symptoms? Let’s take a look at the explanation below.

symptom:

1. Follicle rupture mainly causes lower abdominal pain

This is a signal that the egg is being discharged from the ovary. Pre-ovulation pain often occurs on one side of the abdomen, often when the pressure in the follicle increases; post-ovulation pain is mostly due to the contraction of the uterus and fallopian tubes during ovulation or the stimulation of pelvic organs by bleeding during ovulation; abdominal pain occurs before and after the basal body temperature rises. However, there are two characteristics in patients with luteinized unruptured syndrome:

① The follicles show signs of maturity, with peaks of estrogen and luteinizing hormone, but the mature follicles do not rupture or discharge eggs but continue to grow.

② A corpus luteum is formed in the unruptured follicle, which secretes progesterone to act on the cervix and endometrium; the basal body temperature is biphasic.

2. If the follicles grow larger and are not discharged, they will gradually form cysts and become luteinized follicles.

The luteinized unruptured follicle syndrome refers to the situation in which the follicle matures but does not rupture, the oocyte is not discharged but luteinized in situ, forming a corpus luteum and secreting progesterone, and a series of changes in the somatic effector organs similar to the ovulation cycle occur. The main clinical features are normal menstrual cycles, similar ovulation symptoms but persistent infertility. It is a special type of anovulatory menstruation and one of the important causes of infertility.
