midnight pain in anal area , buttocks and pelvic area

[sella]

hi everyone! i am writing this post with great hopes and years of pain. I have a deep pain in my anal area, my buttocks and my perineum and it worsens during the ovulation and the days after ovulation and eases up for few says while i am on my periods and comes back after my periods. its the worst few days after my ovulation. it started suddenly almost 3 years back one night while i was sleeping. since then its intensity has increased and mostly happens while i am sleeping. it sometimes goes away when i get out of the bed and just stand up. i went through diagnostic laparoscopy and nothing came out . my ob/gyn said i have no signs of endometrosis and everything is good. i am tired of going to doctors, have been to number of them but nothing is helping. no doctor is getting any idea what it might be. have done colonoscopy, endoscopy as well and they came out fine. if anyone has any idea please please please help me out.. thanks and stay blessed😀

I am currently experiencing this( along with numerous other symptoms), mine is rectum pain like someone has left a hot sharp knife up there, feel pressure around my tailbone too along with left sided pelvic pain, it’s horrible. Mine seems to be just as my period finishes. I’ve had an endoscopy and colonoscopy too which were fine but my gastronologist suspects rectovaginal endo as I pass menstrual blood through my rectum when I’m on my periods, oh the humiliation. I’m off to see a gynecologist this morning so hopefully I’ll start getting some answers. Endo can be hard to find even in laps, I’d push for more investigating, maybe an MRI might show some hidden endo. We shouldn’t have to suffer with no answers. Fingers crossed we both get some answers soon x

Hey, I just wanted to say I sympathise with your pain. The stabbing feeling in the rectum is beyond horrific. I hope you find some answers soon. I'm having my diagnostic lap in a couple of weeks and I'm scared they won't find anything that explains this pain!x

I completely understand your worry I feel the same. I saw a general gynecologist yesterday and he suspects rectovaginal endometriosis so has referred me for an MRI (I’m worried nothing will show up or something scary, the anxiety drives me insane) and to a specialist endometriosis centre. Let’s hope we both get some answers and comfort soon x
