This sounds like classic symptoms for Endometriosis!. I suffer from it and it can give you many different symptoms but the ones you've described are amongst them!. You need to see a Gyno - one that is specialised in dealing with Endometriosis as many of them are not!. The only certain away to diagnose this is to carry out a laproscopy - where they go in through small incisions with a camera to check for endometriosis and remove them - by lasering them or cutting them out (cutting is supposed to be better)!. It can come back though and then the best bet is going on the pill or other drugs that your Gyno can give you details on!. For some people with this it can it effect their fertility BUT not everyone with it has this problem
Here's come sites to give you an insight into this condition, but from what you are saying you experience i'd say you definately have this!. It took me over a year to get diagnosed with this unexplained pain but for many women it takes them over 5 years so please see an experienced Endometriosis Gyno as soon as you can!.

stress in your life and troubles in other areas can affect your body all over and hormone levels and pain tolerance, it could be just normal and aches and pains of the day but because you are stressed pain feels worse!. because the medics have tested you and found nothing of a physical nature,therefore, i feel it is more 'psychological' pain, and your body trying to 'tell you something'!.
Do you want a baby!? or have you mixed feelings about periods lately!?
you are usually a healthy lady otherwise I reckon so, the symptoms sound like what most women incl myself, experience with period pains every month, are horrible and you do feel sore around pelvis!. and lower back pain, and I get headaches and feel sick at times and want to overeat starch and sugar and wallow and hide!!
I think the key is managing your stress and learning to switch off , for example,when did you last indulge yourself in a hot bubble bath with candles lit, and your fave tunes playing , or just read a really good book, do something that is only for YOU-be a little bit more selfish and you will start to feel like the lovely/ healthy/ fertile woman you are!
hope you feel better soon,take careWww@Answer-Health@Com

You do not mention your age!. I have had those problems and mine is peri-menopause!. Are you over weight!? I am not being rude because I lost almost 40lbs and I do not have many pains after a slow gradual weight loss!. I put my husband on a diet and he is feeling better too!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
