The singer, who is recovering from malaria, flew to LA earlier this week and has defied doctors' orders by throwing herself back into work, according to The Sun.
A source said: "Cheryl couldn't sit around any longer. She feels 100 times better and wants to get some normality back. She was going crazy sitting around at home.
"She wants a change of scenery so has decided to go to Los Angeles and get back into the studio. But it's still nowhere near the work schedule she had before she fell ill."
Cole is expected to fly back to the UK in three weeks' time to resume filming of The X Factor.
