Ovarian twinges in luteal phase

Hi ladies, I have noticed in the past 4-5 months that I get very bad O pains on the day I O. Ok, normal to have, but why do I notice twinges and pinches in the luteal phase (usually most of the whole LP)? Anyone else have this? I do have a history of cysts, but these pains come and go on both sides (not at the same time) randomly. Not much on web searches about this. I guess I am not preggo again this time because I have them again during this LP. Any input appreciated....I am getting sick of the whole TTC thing in general.

I have had twinges, too, but I could not really describe it. twinges is a good, though.   I can feel my lower abdomen quiver and I thought I was pregnant, but it happened two months ago and no pregnancy.   It happened alot more this month and I am hoping, but not optimistic because I had cramping yesterday.  

I don't know what it is.   I never had it before that I can recall, though.

Hey ladies, Nikita...I  have ovarian twinges randomly too, I don't know what phase I am in though. I just started an Estrogen ring hoping that the twinges would stop. My regular period seems less crampy though. Its just the ovary part.I also had  ultrasounds that showed there is nothing there. I had a large ovarian cyst that twisted years ago and had that side removed. Maybe this one side is overworked?
I thought that being on estrogen would stop me from ovulating? Am I wrong? Can anyone help me? Am I still ovulating? Is this the pain I feel? Help PLEASE anyone!
It's true, this causes so much anxiety.
