[Demotivated]

Hi guys .

I had a 7wk scan. all lookd fine and we saw heart beat as well.

however, my report said there is a 2mm corpus luteum cyst.

my doc said this is completely normal and nothing to worry..

but me being me, really confused...

A corpus luteum cyst is the follicle that your egg was realeased from that stays there to produce the pregnancy hormones when the egg is fertilised I'm pretty sure! That's what the sonographer told me!

What she said I had the same report on my 6 week scan and my midwife said it was nothing to worry about. Our body's just absorb them because I didn't have one at my 12 week scan.

Yep, exactly what the above poster said, I had one at my eight week scan and got told it would just disappear through out the pregnancy x
