Hi, I have been having these sharp pains low on my pelvis on the right side for about a week now. Sometimes the pain spreads down into my leg too. I just switched to a different birth control pill last month do you think that could be the cause? I am not sure if I should see a doctor or wait to see if the pain goes away on its own.

Right Side Pelvic Pain
I've had a similar pain for nearly two years now, not very nice if it feels the same. The pain I used to get down my leg has died off now, and for a while it radiated through to my back.

I've been told it's not related to the pill and that if anything the pill would make it better - I am somehow sceptical though as it is worse just before and during my periods.

All the best for finding the cause, I've had 5 ultra sounds a few 'internals' and still no joy Crying or Very sad Hope the answer is easier for you Smile I left it around two months before I went to the doctor, so that they couldn't say it was 'adjustment time', though I probably left it too long being in pain.

Good Luck Very Happy
