Ovarian cyst...?

Question

I am only 3 1/2 weeks pregnant and just found out that I have a corpus luteal cyst on my left ovary. I'm really worried and was wondering if any other women have had this and if it didn't effect the pregnancy.

Answer 1

Sweetie, many women get this cyst (corpus luteal cyst) during pregnancy and don't even know it until an ultrasound is done. These cysts usually go away totally on their own during the second trimester without causing any pain. It poses no risk whatsoever to your baby.

If you have one that happens to rupture, it may be very painful but will not impact your pregnancy at all! So, please don't worry. Just enjoy your pregnancy. Congratulations!
