I get what sounds to be the same pains in my lower abdomon as well as inside the vagina along with other pains and problems. At first my doctor thourght it was an STI but after testing they found nothing. If only i had a good idea what it is. I may be able to get it seen to.
I was so desperate and in so much pain I did a google search and came across this forum.Thank you ladies for sharing. I helps to know I am not alone. I hate going to the doctor and trying to explain something odd like this.
Most of you desribed the pain during a bowel movement. For me the pain happens so much during my bowel movement I never think about it any more. I just breathe though it. But today the pain came out of nowhere. I went to sit down and nearly had to jump back up! My right leg is achy and it feels like the mucles around my heel and ankle are pulled taut. I just took 800 mgs of ibuprophen cause I can't take the pain. Has anyone experienced the pain during normal activity? .
could some one any one please get an actual diagnosis i do get this pain 4-5 times a yr but for 48hrs straight now and bloated like im 5 mths pregnant,i cant walk,sit and lying down is also uncomfortable , i have had 3 ectopic pregnancies,and 2 kids,my last tube was remove 8 yrs ago 3 mths after giving birth to my last son.i tried an enemena today and it seemed to relive pressure by allowing more gas out but i have yet to to a poo (lol)...i thought of mabe a cyst on my ovarie,or twisted bowl,i have thought alot but have yet to find out what it is..i am off to the doctors tomorrow so if i do get a diagnosis i will be sure to post it on here..
I have had 8 ovarian cysts rupture on my left side and 2 on my right. There really is no way of treating them so I have heard. My hormones are being regulated by birth control and I dont get my period anymore, since October 07, and have recently recovered from laparoscopic surgery done in late January this year. Pain is still there and my OB suggested Mirena, but I opted out since I have heard nothing but horror stories.... This is like a terrible nightmare sometimes!! I'm going to look into the pudendal nerve entrapment, that is actually the second time someone mentioned that to me. Thanks for all your advice and sympathy.

you may want to check out something called pudendal nerve entrapment. It really does sound like you're experiencing many of the symptoms of it.
I would be interested in hearing more about this. I am experiencing something just like your pains. But I don't have endometriosis, and I have had my Mirena IUD for about 6 months now. I have only started experiencing these horrible, shooting pains, since my IUD was placed. And my OBGYN has noted development of ovarian cysts, and said that can cause some pain. But the extremity of my pain caused her to believe it might be gastro-intestinal. Whether it's cysts or not, I'm not sure yet. I would like to hope my IUD is not causing those problems, because other than a little initial discomfort and some weight gain, it's been a god-send.
