Hi ladies I am hoping to seek some advice about my current situation . I am currently on a working holiday in Spain and struggling to find a doctor with an answer in regards to my pelvic pain.
2 days after sex with a new partner I presented with 24 hours of BV/candida symptoms which was then replaced by my period and very strange pinching sensations on what I imagine to be either side of my ovaries. The pain decreased post cycle but mid cycle appeared again more severe and more concerning a dull ache and deep ovulation pain plus a consistent twining/pinching sensation from my left ovary all the way down to my pubic bone. This sensation sometimes occurs in the right ovary but is less severe. I've been tested for all the std's which were all negative and had 2 ultrasounds -external pelvis exams and internal where each doctor states there is nothing wrong but I am still in pain and it's starting to effect my daily activities and mental health. The pain can be intermittent and sometimes a dull ache across my pelvis or even a burning sensation that spreads across my lower tummy. The heavy feeling of my ovaries being pulled down towards my pubic bone is very uncomfortable and I'm starting to feel an occasion sharp pain towards my rectum. I have tingles in my legs but can't be sure it's not caused from feeling anxious about my condition. No fever or unusual discharge or anything else ..im currently vulnerable as I'm abroad and traveling alone and would appreciate any advice from anyone - the last doctor prescribed me the pill and said j should be better in a few months ... Only problem is the pill causes me to feel anxious. I should also mention I medically terminated in October but my first period since then was fine and scans show nothing left behind ...it was from my 2nd-3rd period the pain worsened.. Thanks ladies! Any advice would be great.

I have had my bloods tested for infection and have been on antibiotics and had the symptoms just appeared out of nowhere although I have always had intense period pain for a few days and very sensitive to ovulation pain . I'm stumped ... The pulling pain and burning pain and urinating often are my main symptoms. No discharge for concern or fever .. I am waiting for my next period to begin the pill but am someone recovering anxiety and know 100% the pill triggers my depression/anxiety but am at a loss as to any other options.. It was 4 weeks since my pain started before I was tested for BV etc so I'm not confident it's an infection but perhaps unexplained inflammation or Endo near the bladder sticking to bits causing the pulling sensation ... Trying to remain positive but it's hard . Thanks for your reply !
Hi sorry I know u wrote this post 2 years ago but I’ve just been reading your symptoms and I am the exact same it started after my termination blood tests and swabs are clear. I have now suffered for almost 2 and a half years with these symptoms it is making my life hell, I recently had a large ovarian cyst and cyst growing around my Fallopian tube removed 3months ago, however my symptoms have now worsened and I just don’t seem too be getting anywhere they say it could be endometriosis then PID but it’s as if there just guessing, I’ve just had a scan which has also shown a cluster of something on my left where I had the cystectomy and also an abscess but refused to do anything I have too wait 3months too see if they go alone. I was wondering if you have had any treatment or diagnosis now? Thankyou x
