Pain in left abdomen where ovaries are?

Hi everyone, I'm 22. 4 weeks ago I came off the cerezette pill because I was haveing back pain and cramping. I assumed I needed a period so stopped.
The cramps and back pain died down but I've had a dull ache in my left lower abdomen. Today I was watching tv and It just got worse, it was like strong period cramps but only in that area. Sitting, any pressure on my stomach made it worse. Its died down but it hurts..

I was thinking an ovarian cyst but left it thinking it would go? Maybe I was bunged up and constipated so took laxatives.. it's not that. I'm really confused. I dont want to go the doctors and wais their time

I know it could be a period but I've had this weird cramping sensation before I stopped the pill??

I get this pain around ovulation . It’s pretty painful . It stabs in the bum as well sometimes making sitting uncomfortable

Call the doctor if there is any chance you could be pregnant in case it is an ectopic. It’s not a waste of time.

Me too but I think OP needs checking out just in case.

This might sound like a strange question OP but how is your shoulder? Any pain there?

EarPlugAfficionado · 24/09/2021 17:55

It can be a few things: muscular, inflammation of sigmoid colon (if it’s not constipation) for example.

No shoulder pain, at the beginning when the cramps and back pain started I had an ache in my upper inner thighs but in general the pains in the left abdomen. I'm really bloated and my weights fluctuating more than it has in my life.

I went to my gp in July with exact same symptoms.
Referred for a scan...I'm still waiting

Cotswoldmama · 24/09/2021 18:14

I get this during ovulation too, it can be really painful and can come out of nowhere.

Is the swelling from bloating very bad? And is it the stomach where you've put on the weight and are skinny elsewhere? If so, please go and see your GP.

Sounds like mittelschmerz to me

MsPavlichenko · 24/09/2021 18:35

Please call. Ectopic aim can start as dull pain and can be intermittent. It is life threatening so don’t leave it assuming it’s ovulation pain.

Sophie1029734 · 24/09/2021 19:37

How long should I wait till I call the doctors? They arent open till monday anyway, should I leave it till then? If its gets really bad should I ask 111 or wait

OP posts:
MsPavlichenko · 24/09/2021 19:49

I wouldn’t wait till Monday as I said. It can move very quickly. Unless there is no chance you could be pregnant as in you’ve not had sex at all recently.

YourFinestPantaloons · 24/09/2021 20:10

Call 111 OP it can't hurt

Yesterday and today I woke up, didnt feel nauseous but as soon as I eat breakfast I start to feel a nauseas deep in my throat, high in my stomach.. then the more I eat it gets better. It's not extreme, it's like a really hungry neseua but doesnt start until in a couple mins in to esting. I've never had this before..
Idk maybe I could be pre**ant, ik so used to be in the pill (have been since 16) that I forgot and had unprotected sex last sunday. 😭😭 I dont want another child, I've only just to the stage where I can take lo out, have more freedom. I'm not mentally ready for another, I'm 22.. I want to try and expierineced my youth instead of giveing it up to another child. I would want another, just not yet.. if I aborted.. it's a huge decision and I'd feel so guilty omg 😔

Maybe Its not, implantation apparently lasts a couple days and I've had this pressure/dull pain in my ovaries for a couple weeks. Maybe I'm just over thinking and I was just really hungry when I woke up 😂
