What are the dangers of corpus luteum cyst?

Corpus luteum cyst is an ovarian disease that often occurs in female friends. It is one of the manifestations of ovarian tumors. Therefore, it will pose a great threat to women's health. In addition, its location is relatively hidden and generally difficult to be found, which also brings certain difficulties to the treatment. Let us understand some specific adverse effects of corpus luteum cyst on female friends.

Ovarian cyst is a common ovarian disease in women. Its location is relatively hidden, in the female pelvic cavity, so it is not easy to find. Ovarian cysts have a serious impact on women's physical and mental health, and can endanger women's fertility to a certain extent. Ovarian cysts are divided into benign and malignant types, and the degree of harm they cause to women varies, but they cannot be ignored. The main hazards of ovarian cysts are as follows:

1. Causes lower abdominal pain

The cyst itself has a certain weight. With the movement of the body and intestinal peristalsis, the cyst will move in the pelvic cavity, while involving the pelvic funnel ligament and cyst pedicle, so the patient feels a sense of sinking, distension and pain in the lower abdomen. At this time, it is easy to mistake it for an ordinary gynecological disease or gastroenteritis, and the patient may take medicine indiscriminately or delay treatment.

2. Causes body edema

The patient will lose his appetite and lose weight, and may also experience vomiting, fever and severe abdominal pain. In severe cases, it can cause edema in the limbs and abdomen.

3. Premature aging of women

Ovarian cysts can cause endocrine disorders and premature aging of the face in mild cases, or develop into serious diseases such as ovarian cancer in severe cases.

4. Affect fertility

Ovarian cysts may cause miscarriage in early pregnancy, and interruption of pregnancy may easily cause torsion of the ovarian cyst pedicle. In the late pregnancy, if the cyst pedicle torsions to a large extent, it may cause abnormal fetal position, which may block the birth canal during delivery and cause dystocia.

5. Cause infertility

Patients with ovarian cysts may experience increased vaginal discharge, lower abdominal pain, and menstrual disorders in the early stages. As the cyst continues to develop, it will affect the production of hormones, causing irregular vaginal bleeding or increased body hair. When the cyst develops to the middle and late stages, symptoms such as urinary pain, frequent urination, abdominal distension and pain will appear. If not treated in time, it will lead to infertility.

6. Develop into cancer

As the ovarian cyst grows, it can easily become infected with bacteria, twist, bleed, or even burst, seriously threatening the patient's life. What's worse, it may develop into cancer, which is very harmful.

Therefore, it is best for female friends to go to the hospital for regular gynecological examinations every year, especially when they find any discomfort in their private parts, they should try to go to the hospital as soon as possible to find out the cause. Once a corpus luteum cyst is found, they should choose a more professional hospital in time to diagnose and treat the disease according to the specific disease conditions and causes, so as to minimize the damage to the body.
