Ovulation pain and discomfort

From the day of ovulation till day 2 of my periode I have cramps, sore breasts to the point I can't wear underwired bras, bloating, nausea, dizziness, constipation and lately also insomnia. It seems to be getting worse every cycle. Is there anything I can do to relieve these symptoms?

I'm not using any birth control as we're trying for another baby. Unfortunately I have had four miscarriages within a year. I've had test done including genetics and they have all come back normal.  I also have hypothyroidism, but it's under control and tested negative for antibodies.

Could there be any relation between these symptoms and the miscarriages?

I just wanted to add that I know my miscarriages are not down to genetic 'mistakes' as my first miscarriages ended with a D&C and tests were carried out on the embryo

No I have had no recommendations, just been told everything looks normal.

I've no doubt I'm ovulating, if not I wouldn't get pregnant so quickly. I was just wondring if there's anything that can help relieve the symptoms a bit as it really does get pretty bad sometimes and last the full luteal phase, then bleeding, then about 5 days feeling normal before it starts over again.

Hi!
Your symptoms all suggest that you are ovulating, which is good if you want a baby.
Ovulatory cycles almost always cause worse "PMS" symptoms.  I can't think of how the symptoms could be related to the miscarriages.  The miscarriages are statistically most likely to be due to genetic "mistakes" in the fetus/embryo.  I'm sorry to hear that you've been through so many!
It sounds like your doctor is on top of everything though.  Is he/she recommending anything like a daily baby aspirin, or heparin?
Good Luck!
