Progesterone causes the endometrial glands to secrete, preparing the endometrium for blastocyst implantation. If the oocyte is fertilized, the corpus luteum enlarges to form a corpus luteum of pregnancy and increases hormone production. With pregnancy, chorionic gonadotropin, secreted by the trophoblast of the chorion, prevents degeneration of the corpus luteum.
About one-fourth of women with this type of cyst experience pain. Usually, these cysts produce no symptoms and disappear by themselves within a few weeks or months. Corpus luteum cyst: A corpus luteum cyst is a functional ovarian cyst that occurs after an egg has been released from a follicle. Following ovulation, the follicle becomes what is known as a corpus luteum. If a pregnancy doesn't occur, the corpus luteum usually breaks down and disappears.
