Ovarian cyst: are you still menstrating? If so your corpus lutem cyst is most likely normal and is what is left when the cycst that grew the egg for that cycleon your ovary ruptures when you ovulate. It secretes estrogen/progesterone in preparation for possible fertilization. If no fert occurs, the cysts goes away. If you are not still menstrating cyst needs to be followed in ultrasound. Hope this helps.
