So, it is just about two weeks after your last period (around the time that ovulation usually takes place) and you realise that you are experiencing lower abdominal pains. You know that your next period is not yet due, you could not possibly be pregnant and so you are wondering, could something serious be happening to you, could you be dying? This is exactly what happened to me when I first started experiencing what I now found out, is ovulation pain. I was prompted to conduct some research and has since found out that painful ovulation is very normal and affects up to 20% of women, some more severe than others and it is especially prevalent in women like myself, who have been diagnosed with PCOS. After doing my research, I now understand more about this issue and now sees it as a good thing for some of us women, who are trying to get pregnant, because there will be no guessing as to when we are ovulating exactly and as a result our chances of conceiving is greatly increased. For further reading on painful ovulation, what causes it and how is it diagnosed, etc., please check out the following link http://www.babyhopes.com/articles/painful-ovulation.html From the site “All women are familiar with cramping, headaches, bloating, and constipation or diarrhea that accompany periods every month. But some women also experience mid-cycle ovulation pain. This is absolutely normal and surprisingly common. Painful ovulation or mid-cycle pain affects about twenty percent of women. Although the pain may feel like something serious is wrong, painful ovulation or is rarely serious. |
