ovary pain (question and information about ovary pain)?!
Question: Ovary pain (question and information about ovary pain)?
Now for my question, it's been about 5 years now and up until the last 6 mo. I've been pain free on that side. Each mo. goes by and my periods get more painful. Yesterday I was really achy on my right side ONLY and I started my period that afternoon, Last night I woke with a sharp pain, (I take sleeping pills so for somethign to wake me up it has to be bad) I was groggy but in enough pain I wanted to go to the ER. I took 3 ibprofin and after awhile feel back to sleep. It's been about 7 hrs and the achey pain is coming back, praying for the sharp pains not to. This pain seems to be involved with my period too, I do not have a tube on that side so it's just the ovary that is hurting. Thanks for any answers you may have.

Hmmm... hard to tell... I'm no doctor! You may want to look into Polycystic ovary syndrome and also Endometriosis. These are 2 different diseases that affect many women (they are both pretty common) Both also affect fertility so if you find out you do have one of these and you get surgery to correct the pain (for now) you may want to get on trying to have kids as with time these diseases will cause infertility. Do some research and see if your symptoms match, and make an appointment with the doctor that helped you before (if he is a gynecologist) to get the proper testing done to see.
You should def. go back to the doctor you went too. (The one that ACTUALLY helped you)
