Over the past few moths, I have started experiencing right side pelvic pain during and few days after my period. This is really low in my pelvis. The pain is dull and constant yet when I touch the area it is extreamly tender and causes excruciating pain. The right side of my pelvis also tends to swell up.
My periods have also become very light. At the beginning of my period I get brown discharge, followed by light bleeding for 1-2 days, which again is followed by brown discharge for a good 4-5 days. Has anyone experienced anything similar? Is this normal?

Morning, I can think of a few things it could be. I wouldn’t want to speculate though. If you’re worried and you’re in pain, it’s probably best to get it checked out. I’d ask your GP for a Gynaecology referral. You’ll have an internal scan and they’ll be able to tell you what’s causing your symptoms x x
I also have pelvic ache after my period which can last for days or over a week after my period. I’ve had it for a while but always put it down to endo being bothersome. I am also a bit tender across pelvis and bloat, particularly either side of pelvis. Weirdly it has become worse since I had surgery in March.
I don’t however have lighter periods since all of this started.
Interested to follow on any other posts on this.
It prob always good to go to a doctor if you are worried and it’s a change in your normal.
