Question

I'm a bit confused about corpus luteum cysts. I read that they're connected to ovulation and menstruation, and nothing to do with being sexually active, but a gynecologist mentioned to me that it's not possible if you're not sexually active. Can you clarify how they actually develop?

I'm 9 weeks pregnant and this morning I noticed some watery discharge that was similar to pee. It was just that one time, but now I'm still having some kind of watery discharge, though there's no color or smell. I'm really worried about if this is harmful or not. Could you please let me know if there's something I should be worried about?

Question

I'm a pathologist and currently pregnant. I've had a 7-week ultrasound which showed a fetal heartbeat at 108 beats per minute and the baby's length is 6mm. From what I know, this all seems normal, but I'm aware that hCG is a schedule X drug. Given my situation, should I consider getting hCG injections?
