The empty follicle continues to function as the corpus luteum, or yellow body. It produces hormones that sustain the egg and help prepare the endometrial lining for implantation if it becomes fertilized. Eventuall, it is reabsorbed by the ovary to be reused in the next cycle through a process known as envolution.

Does caffeen cause overian cysts?

no.. The normal function of the ovaries is to produce an egg each month. During the process of ovulation, a cyst-like structure called a follicle is formed inside the ovary. The mature follicle ruptures when an egg is released during ovulation. A corpus luteum forms from the empty follicle, and if pregnancy does not occur, the corpus luteum dissolves. Sometimes, however, this process does not conclude appropriately, causing the most common type of ovarian cyst -- functional ovarian cysts.
