.Hi again. Well I had my doctor's appointment yesterday. The doctor did a normal Pap and pressed on my stomach. He said he didn't feel anything abnormal. He could tell my uterus was tender though. He said that my uterus is dropping. Which would be somewhat normal for a 35 year old female with three kids. But I'm 24. But sense I have had 3 live births, he said that is the reason. He said that I am probably having pains because when my husband and I make love, he is hitting the uterus. There is nothing I can do to change that, or the fact that it has dropped. The doctor said that when I do turn 35, I might have to have my uterus taken out threw the vagina??? (if it keeps dropping) But as for now, I'm to just try to change positions and try not to agervate it.
He also thinks some of my pain is from ovulation. (I have had my period sense I was 10 years old, so I don't agree with him on this. That and the fact that this pain started right AFTER my period...) He said that if I am still in pain in a week, to give him a call, and he would test for Ectopic. Sense I'm at high risk.
He said that pain in the lower abdimin could be from a number of things, but because everything is so close together there, it's hard for a female to tell if it's "female pain" or something else.

Rest of post is in part two....
