Uncomfortable pain left side

[Hanna-hope]

Hi everyone,

I am currently experiencing an uncomfortable pain on my left side, located just below my hip and over slightly to the right. I had this same pain last month but on my right side? Does anyone know what this is? Is it my ovaries? Why does it swap sides? So uncomfortable

Hi, how long does the pain last for? It could be ovulation pain if it comes about once a month x

Ive had it on and off for the last few days? X

Mine usually lasts for anything up to 3 days-like a cross between period pain and a stitch, but on one side of my lower abdomen. I have scarring from endometriosis, so I tend to feel ovulation more strongly than women usually do...that’s my best guess though x

Yes it sounds like what your describing, same place. How long have you had endometriosis? X

[GraceFace in reply to Hanna-hope]

That’s good news, as although it’s painful it’s nothing to worry about. I actually find it comforting to know I’m still ovulating. My endo was caused by an emergency op I had in 2011, but wasn’t diagnosed until last year x

Ok do you get pains throughout the month? X

Nope-only around ovulation and period x
