Severe ovulation pain

Does anyone else have ovulation pain like mine?

Whenever I read about it, people always describe it as a stabbing/shooting paid from either their left or right side, but mine feels like it's in my cervix. It must be the opening or something? Who knows.

It's so painful for the two days around ovulation that I can't actually have sex. It's like an aching, dull, dragging, fullness in my cervix and Any sort of quick movement or even if I sit down too fast, feels like I've been booted in the womb by a donkey!

I have sex as much as possible in the run up to my fertile window but it seems as soon as I get a positive OPK, the pain starts. In fact, the aching is a cue for me to actually take a test, and I always get a blazing positive.

I've been ttc for 2 years now and although people still get pregnant in the 3/4 days before ovulation, I'm obviously missing the 1/2 days before because of the pain. What can I do!

Why do our bodies work against us so much 😢
