Period pain around ovulation?

[ChloeL934]

Hi all,

I’m in my days where I should be ovulating (haven’t taken ovulation test) however I’ve been getting pains like period pains lower abdomen and lower back has anyone else experience this x

Hi Chloe.. i hope it goes away quickly once you have ovulated. It sounds like ovarian pain. Did u have this in the past? it might be a cyst? I was in alot of pain and was told it would go away by itself. And it did. Only when it gets really bad with fever and vomiting it might mean a burst cyst. Warm water bottle helps with some painkillers x

Hey,

Thank you for replying.

I do have a 5cm endo cyst, I was suppose to have surgery on May 6th to remove this but it’s been cancelled. I don’t usually get pain especially around ovulation.

My heat pad is a life saver xx

Hi Chloe,

I have a cyst around the same size, however I only get excruciating pain when I'm due on my period.. like you I use hot water bottles. Buy recently discovered from Be You... here's the link : beyouonline.co.uk/products/...

Honestly these are a life saver... they are like a humongous plaster that u peel off and position on your lower pelvis are and has 2 ends attached to place in position near were your ovaries are positioned. They numb the pain after a period of time.. as it contains eucalyptus and another ingredient.. it honestly soothes and numbs the pain. Best thing I've discovered especially when I'm at work and can't use a hot water bottle.

Defo give it a try , hope your pain eases xx

Yes I get ovulation pain every month quite helpful to know when ovulation is happening without having to use opk. I dont have any cysts or any fertility/uterus issues etc.

Have you had IVF? I have this and it started after several IVF rounds, I think its quite normal but can also mean cysts x

No haven’t had IVF yet but do have a cyst xx

I Chloe I have this for the first time ever this month along with slight bleeding/brown discharge and a UTI to boot! Trying not to get too anxious until I have an internal assessment in a few months (here's hoping).
