Corpus Luteum cystFrom: Maggie (anonymous@obgyn.net)Thu, 30 May 2002 21:48:30 -0500 (CDT)
I posted a message a few days ago regarding the fact that I thought I had a miscarriage. I was experienceing severe back pain, sudden bleeding and nausea over a week before my period ws expected. After speaking with my GYN, he was VERY concerned that I had an ectopic pregnancy and wanted to see me immediately. During an ultrasound he noted that I have a corpus luteum cyst 3-4 times larger than my uterus on one ovary and three golf ball-sized cysts on the other ovary. He has been strongly urging me to have a hysterectomy over the last year due to my history of severe ovarian cysts, abdominal adhesions and endo. This episode has involved terrible back pain, severe bleeding and nausea. He explained that the corpus luteum cyst is large, producing progesterone and may or may not disappear on its own. His only course of treatment is to wait and see what happens or go ahead and have a hysterctomy to end my episodes of surgery after surgery to temporarily "fix" my problems. I am just 29 and don't have any children. Is there any other way to stop this cycle of surgery after surgery? Is there any way to "fix" the current problem other than a hysterctomy? I can handle the fact that I can't have children, but the idea of a hysterctomy devastates me. Any advice is appreciated!
