Pain in my ovary? Please please help!?

Question

I am so sorry, I have yet another question. I have never been pregnant and definitely have never had a miscarriage, so I have just so many questions :(

I miscarried on July 21st. I know that I ovulated and at that time I had strange twinges of pain on my left ovary that the dr. said could probably be a cyst that is normal during pregnancy and since I just had a m/c nothing to worry about and it was probably just going away.

Well, now I FINALLY have my period (first normal cycle) and I have crazy sharp twingy pain in my left ovary again. This time its a little worse. Its not like I am doubling over in pain or anything, but it definitely hurts. Would this be an ovarian cyst? Why? I have never had this before. Should I be worried?

My husband and I definitely want to ttc this month when I ovulate, will be be able to if it is a cyst? I am so worried. Will this prevent pregnancy????

Please help. What is this pain?

Answer 1

I'm not trying to scare you but it can be 1 of 4 things. 1. cyst, 2, endometriosis,3. egg stuck in your ovary, or 4. ovarian cancer,go to your gyno to have this checked.  

Answer 2

Abdominal/pelvic pain that is similar to that of period cramping may indicate a problem in a reproductive organ (like the pain around your ovaries or uterus).

This includes conditions such as endometriosis (when tissue from the uterus is displaced to somewhere else like the pelvic wall or ovaries), uterine fibroids (thick bands of muscular and fibrous tissue in the uterus), ovarian cysts, ovarian cancer (rare), or pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) infection of the reproductive organs, usually from a sexually transmitted disease.

If you have pain in your ovary area, you might have an ovarian cyst. I have experienced that same type of pain whenever I have had an ovarian cyst.  I was also diagnosed with endometriosis last year which caused me severe pelvic pain and intense and painful period cramping.

Based on your symptoms and what you wrote, I would recommend that you should see your doctor/gynaecologist, just to rule out any serious causes.

Good luck :)
