Pain in ovary before and during period?

Hi everyone,

I've had a pain in my left side- not very painful, uncomfortable though.

And I started my period this morning. Pain is not as bad but it's still there. Is this normal? I think I've had this pain before but couldn't remember whether it was around/during my period.

Hi. I get this too, I get it mid cycle and just before my period. It's always left side and really painful. I take ibuprofen, that usually works.

It's my left that's hurting too. Have you ever been to the doctors about this?

Hi, yes, i was referred for a scan (in case it was a cyst) but it was ok, Dr just said it could be ovulation pain. Doesn't explain the pain just before my period though?

I'll book an appt and see my gynae again.

Really hope it's not another cyst

Thank you for replying.

Yes I see that!!!

I still get pain every now and again. And since I've started walking to prepare for race for life my knees hurts man I feel fat and old. And I'm nearly 4.5 stones lighter too now!

I guess it's just the using of new bones and muscles after we haven't for so long. Hopefully the more you use it the more you'll get better

Hiya,
i too feel ovulation pain mid cycle but then I started experiencing what I thought was left ovary pain all the time. I had a scan and all normal but the nurse did mention that our bowels dip down on the left side and this often gets confused with the ovary area. I'm seeing how mine goes before I have further investigations Xx

Thank you for replying. I don't get it as bad as I used to.. I think losing weight is really helping x

Hi , last thurs( it's Sunday today) I started getting pressure/pain back ache, even bottom ache, it was quite bad at times and when I still had it Saturday morning I was starting to worry and decided if I still had it on Monday I would see the dr. All manor of things went through my head what it could be, I have PCOS so could it be a cyst that had burst? A bladder infection, wind?(and I'd feel pretty silly going to the dr with that!) my period on its way? ( I am very irregular , but I never have pain before I come on, but once I'm on its like I've been hit by a sledge hammer and being squeezd by a vice!) the pain generally was in my pevis but for the last day was more on my right side ( now I was worried I had appendicitis !) but it was weird ,it felt almost like I had a bubble expanding inside my R side , causing the pressure and pain . Has anyone else experienced this? Or what it was?.
Im not too worried now as I came on today and am accompanied by the sledgehammer and vice, but because the above was unusual for me should I be concerned? Ty for reading this ! X

You should definitely visit the doctor. tell them that you want a scan done just to make sure everything is ok x
