She had a cyst (not this type) removed not long ago, from her left ovary. Since that cyst was removed she had remained almost pain free till falling pregnant. Is this cyst causing the pain, which she says is almost identical to the pain from the previous cyst. Also because of the size of the Corpus cyst, can it cause pregnancy problems and if so could someone tell me what they are. Thankyou. > > Concerned mum I am 11 weeks pregnant and i also have a corpus luteal cyst on my left ovary. My cyst is only 1.5cm. It causes some pain only when I sneeze and cough. I was told that this is quite normal during pregnancy and will disappear around the 16th week of pregnancy. I was told that was the ovary i ovulated from. However, my cyst is preventing the corpus luteum from producing the hormone progesterone which your body needs to maintain a pregnancy. my progesterone was dangerously low and I was started on supplements. The Corpus luteum is responsible for making the progesterone for the pregnancy until the placenta takes over around the 12th week.
