Pulling sensation?

I've had my pains for almost three months now everyday and I didn't go for my last injection after my pains started up so everything is kind of kicking back into gear I think. The pains initially have been dull ache between left and right side

I've had the smallest period a couple of weeks ago and I've felt intense ovulation pain this week.

However the past couple of days I've felt a sort of pulling sensation in my lower back area... it's almost as if something is stuck there but it's weird when I bend or move in certain positions... not neccasarily that painful but very uncomfortable!

Anyone else experience anything like this before? I'm still waiting to see a specialist in 2 weeks time

It's a bit early to say as it's only been a few days but if the pulling sensation becomes a regular thing, it could be adhesions. I have them and this is what I feel but the pulling sensation is very localised for me and although it's not painful, I don't like standing up straight when I get them.

Yeah it's definitely a new symptom I'm going back to my GP in morning to try and see if I can hurry along my gynae appt, it's such a struggle working at the moment!

This feels quite localised and like you say not particularly painful it just uncomfortable!!

I'm definitely ovulating at the moment so I'm wondering if by any chance it is adhesions could ovulating be why this has just started!

I think I'm just fed up of it all and keep looking for answers, I have zero patience! Thanks for the reply x

Hi

I have a tethering sensation which was initially cyclical and would loosen a few days in to a period. In my case it was in my groin. I ignored it as I was in the phase of having given up on the GP. I’m now awaiting my first lap as the sensation eventually became permanent and I developed a very rare form of motor nerve damage in my leg back and buttock which is now being treated as being caused by endo. I’d say that your sensation suggests nerve involvement. Definitely push for action and don’t do what I did. Take care. X
