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?

View allI'm a bit concerned because I started bleeding for about 5 days after a dilation and curettage, then it stopped for 3 days, but now it's started again, and the bleeding is brown. Is this something normal, or should I be worried?
Bleeding 5 days after a D&C (dilation and curettage) procedure is common, and the subsequent stoppage for 3 days followed by brown-colored bleeding could be due to hormonal changes, uterine lining shedding, or minor spotting

I'm wondering about a follicle size that's 30x30mm with a small amount of free fluid on the 16th day does that mean it's a follicle or could it be a cyst? I've been on CCQ medication, and my periods have always been regular, so I haven't had PCOD or cyst issues before. Has anyone had a similar experience and conceived successfully with these numbers?
-A 30x30mm follicle size on day 16 is quite large, but it could still be a mature follicle ready to ovulate, especially with minimal free fluid. It's unlikely to be a cyst unless it's irregular in shape or causing symptoms. Since you're on CCQ medication

I'm just a bit worried and need some advice. My wife is three months pregnant and I'm wondering if it's okay for her to eat dry seeds, grapes, and dry fruits regularly? She also eats biscuits daily. Is this diet safe for her, or should she be eating other specific foods to support her pregnancy? Please help me out here!
