What causes corpus luteum rupture

  The corpus luteum is a periodic product in the female body. Whenever the follicle matures and ovulates, the corpus luteum is produced in the female ovary. The corpus luteum is composed of many luteal cells. The corpus luteum is generally fragile. If women are not careful, it may lead to the rupture of the corpus luteum. This article will introduce the causes of corpus luteum rupture.

  

What causes corpus luteum rupture1

  (1) Self rupture

  Under normal circumstances, there is a small amount of bleeding in the corpus luteum, but if there is too much bleeding, spontaneous rupture may occur. Some people believe that insufficient coagulation function during blood vessel luteinization leads to bleeding, causing an increase in pressure within the corpus luteum cavity and making it prone to rupture. Holding urine and excessive emotional tension can also be triggers for corpus luteum rupture.

  (2) External force action

  After experiencing impacts, falls, and vigorous jumping and running in the abdomen, the sudden increase in intra-abdominal pressure causes the mature corpus luteum to rupture. Some women may even experience corpus luteum rupture when coughing or defecating forcefully.

  (3) Caused by sexual activity

  During sexual activity, the reproductive organs expand and become congested. When reaching orgasm, muscle tissue can exhibit spasmodic contractions, causing an increase in tension within the corpus luteum. If a male engages in rough sexual intercourse and the female's lower abdomen is strongly impacted, it can lead to the rupture of the corpus luteum. Therefore, when the female partner experiences lower abdominal pain after sexual intercourse, she must not be complacent.

  This article provides a detailed introduction to the three reasons for corpus luteum rupture. If you are a woman, you must have a special idea during ovulation, preferably not engaging in strenuous exercise and taking good care of yourself. This can prevent the rupture of the corpus luteum caused by intense exercise and other factors, which can cause pain and torment to your body, and allow you to safely pass through the ovulation period.
