Sharp twisting pain in side

I get this from time to time on my right side, right between the bottom of my ribs and the top of my hip.

It’s really sore, feels like something is twisting tight.

I’ve noticed it correlates with when I don’t use my progesterone cream - a few weeks of constant use and it disappears.

I’ve been scanned a couple of years ago and there was nothing untoward but I may revisit the gp as it’s worse I think.

Does anyone else get this? Or had similar and know what it is? I suffer from oestrogen dominance too, thinking it’s related.

You’re probably already aware of symptoms associated with Oestrogen Dominance,..this might have something to do with pain/discomfort in a specific area...

Eliminate Regularly

If you are not having regular bowel movements your body is unable to eliminate excess estrogen. Not having enough digestive enzymes and/or having low stomach acid (anyone on acid blockers) are some potential causes for re-circulation of estrogen. Low magnesium levels, dehydration, low fiber intake, as well as dysbiois or an imbalance of bacteria in the gut can also contribute to poor elimination and estrogen dominance.
