Pain in my lower pelvic region Posted: 03-08-08 02:42am
Hi, I've been having pain in my lower left
pelvic area that doesn't feel normal. I
get sharp shooting pains that usually
prevent me from standing for long periods
of time and it seems to get worse right
before my period starts, I feel like I'm
going to throw up.
I feel like there is swollen tissue on
that side as well and during sexual
intercourse my husband says when he
fingers me deep inside to the left he can
feel like there is something there.

Go to your gyn. It sounds like an ovarian
cyst. Cysts can increase and decrease in
size depending upon the hormonal level
during your cycle. Only your doctor can
tell you for sure.

If it is a cyst.....Can it be removed, can
it prevent me from having children?

It sounds like you may have endometriosis.
If that is the case you'll need to have
it treated with a contraceptive regime of
your gyno's recommendation. If left
unattended it can cause infertility and
the fusing of internal organs. Please
seek gyno help as soon as possible to
analyze this. Infertility would be a
blessing for me but for you it sounds as
if it would be a curse.
It could be something as simple as ovarian
sensitivity, pain and reactive
inflammation due to the release of your
eggs. It's best not to wait, though.

cramping?

Can ovarian cysts cause mild cramping? Is
this common?
