What are the symptoms of corpus luteum atrophy?

Luteal atrophy is also an abnormality of corpus luteum function. It is a common clinical problem and is more common in women. When the corpus luteum atrophy is incomplete, it has a huge impact on the female body, and the symptoms are also very obvious. The problem of incomplete corpus luteum atrophy must be taken seriously and treated in a timely manner. Treatment mainly focuses on prescribing the right medicine for the disease. What are the symptoms of incomplete corpus luteum atrophy?

1. Infertility:

Because the corpus luteum cannot shrink and degenerate as scheduled or degenerates incompletely, the continued secretion of a small amount of progesterone will cause the endometrium to be unable to shed at the normal time. The endometrium before menstruation still remains in the early secretion stage, making it difficult for women to conceive.

2. Menstrual disorders:

Some patients with luteal insufficiency may experience menstrual disorders, such as shortened menstrual cycle, excessive or insufficient menstruation, prolonged menstruation, etc., which seriously endanger women's health.

3. Miscarriage:

Due to luteal insufficiency, the uterus cannot secrete enough progesterone. Therefore, even if female patients with corpus luteum insufficiency conceive normally, it is difficult to maintain normal pregnancy, which may lead to miscarriage or habitual miscarriage.

4. Note

The most common method for treating luteal insufficiency is to supplement the lack of progesterone in the body, generally by intramuscular injection of progesterone and oral administration of medroxyprogesterone. Human chorionic gonadotropin can also be used to promote luteal function.
