Pain in left ovary area

by jen76, May 13, 2006 12:00AM
I have had this sharp pain in my lower left ovary area for about three days now.  The pain comes and goes and varies in range.  Sometimes it is very painful other times it is a dull pain.  There is no weird discharge.  Any idea what it could be?

One other thing, there is also pain/tenderness on my cervix area.

you may want to go to the doctor thats how my pain started out and i didnt have the money to go to the doctor and now a little over a year later i have a small cyst on my right ovarie with UNBEARABLE pain and no money to fix it so i would suggest to get it looked at and it may be something not to worry about you never know.
good luck

Are you nearing ovulation time?  Sometimes I get pain in left
ovary and in my cervix when I ovulate.  It sounds like you need
to put a call into your doctor's or GYN's office.  If it is an
infection, it needs to be treated with antiobitics.  Good luck!

You should see your doc cause there could be a chance u have a cyst on your ovaries.

I just came home from the doctors today. I was in Urgent Care last night and refered to have an ultrasound due to the same pain you have described. Turns out I have an ovarian cyst that is filled with blood instead of fluid. The doctors said there is really nothing they can do about it but to watch for worsening symptoms. If symptoms get worse for you definetly go in to see someone. Also watch if you develop a fever or vomiting. I hope this helps you a little. Chances are it is an overian cyst.

Thanks for posting this. I've been having the same pains lately.  I'm definately going to ask my doc about this! I don't want a cyst :(  

Are they bad?  Is it something that will go away?

Ok i went to the emergency room like almost 2 wks ago because of suuden right lower abdominal pain. Well the doctor did pelvic ultrasound and a pelvic ct scan and more and still could not diagnose me. All she said was she thinks i had a cyst that ruputured but that she wanted my doctor to keep a close eye on my ovary. Well be like 2 weeks and im still having abdominal pain and my ovary is really sore. Any ideas? I also cant figure out that if the ultrasound was ok then why do i need to have my doctor keep a close eye on my ovaries? make any sense to anyone? Im only 24 so what all could be wrong?

I had a similar problem and I was in and out of the hospital ALOT. The doctor's could never find out what was wrong with me. They were trying to tell me that the pain was all in my head, this went on for year, at one point they even told me that I was no longer aloud to come into the emergency room for this problem anymore. This was after I was admitted to the hospital for pain control from my OBGYN. I woke up in the morning of my release with blood on my pillow and coughing up blood clots, and they told me that they could not figure out what was wrong so I was going to have to go home. A few prescriptions that consisted of, Percocet, Darvacet, Amoxicillin, Naproxen, Ibuprofen, Ranidin, and still no diagnosis. Finally after an excruciating year they found out that it had nothing to do with my ovaries or the cysts in them, but IBS (irritable bowel syndrome)the treatment worked for awhile but not forever. I still do not think that this diagnosis is correct, because I am still having the pain on occasion, as always. But like I said am not allowed to go to the doctor for this anymore.

I have been to the hospital on numerous occassions for ovarian cysts bursting.  The pain starts off sharp like a gas pain.  I usually hope it is at that point.  Then the pain comes in waves and gets worse.  I head to the hospital and it gets so bad I can't move at all.  I am in a ball in the bed with my head to my knees and can't even lay back down the pain is so bad.  Then when it gets to its worst, it suddenly stops.  The relief of it finally rupturing is euphoric.  Then I head home and pray it doesn't happen again.  I asked my obgyn if i have to go to the ER when this happens.   She said no.  She said to just call her for pain meds and I can stay home and let the pain pass.  It usually takes 2-3 hours.  The cyst bursting isn't anything to worry about.  Its just the pain that *****.  Thank goodness it goes away after a couple of hours!  

I hope that helps some people save trips and expense to the ER.  Stock up on pain killers and keep them on you.
