The dangers of luteal phase bleeding

Progesterone is a substance that regulates the regular changes in the uterus and ovaries of pregnant women. During the follicular phase, under the synergistic effect of estrogen and estradiol, the uterine wall further proliferates, blood vessels grow, and the glandular ducts begin to secrete mucus containing glycogen. At the end of this period, the growth of the uterine wall reaches its peak, preparing the conditions for the implantation and continued growth of the sperm and egg.

The "previous life" of the corpus progesterone is the tissue left over after ovulation, with a lifespan of only 14 days. It grows to its largest size 7-8 days after ovulation, begins to decline on the 9-10th day, and completely declines on the 14th day, forming a scar (corpus albicans). Therefore, the short-term "life" of progesterone only occurs during the ovulation period. Lutein copper is a pure natural estrogen, which is essential for maintaining pregnancy.

The corpus luteum is covered with rich capillaries. Under normal circumstances, the diameter of the corpus luteum is generally about 1.5 cm, and then it changes into the corpus albicans, which naturally disappears in the follicular phase of the next cycle. If the corpus luteum exceeds 3 cm, it will become a corpus luteum cyst. Uterine and ovarian corpus luteum cysts may be damaged and bleed due to some reasons. In severe cases, acute abdomen may occur, with abdominal pain, the degree of which varies depending on the intra-abdominal bleeding.

Some people call him the "teenage murderer"

Ovarian corpus luteum dehiscence is one of the common gynecological acute abdominal diseases, which is more common in young women aged 14 to 30 years old and is prone to occur after ovulation one week before each menstruation. Zhang Lu revealed that the most prominent symptom of corpus luteum rupture is sudden abdominal pain. In severe cases, osmotic shock may occur, which can seriously endanger life if not treated in time. Therefore, some people call him the "teenage murderer". I guess the first thing that comes to everyone's mind is collision, and they think that cracking will only occur after a severe impact, which is not entirely correct.

At present, clinical medicine has found three reasons that can lead to corpus luteum rupture:

1. Spontaneous rupture: Under normal circumstances, the body of the yellow will bleed, but if the bleeding is too much, spontaneous rupture may occur.

2. External force: After the abdomen is hit, fallen, bounced or run violently, the pressure in the abdomen suddenly increases, causing the perfect corpus luteum to rupture. Some women may even experience corpus luteum rupture when they cough hard or defecate.

3. Caused by sexual intercourse: During sexual intercourse, the corpus luteum expands, and the muscles may contract and spasm during sexual pleasure, which increases the pressure on the corpus luteum. If the man has rough sexual intercourse and the woman's lower abdomen suffers severe impact, it will cause corpus luteum rupture.
