Accepted Answer

Ovulation pain: Some women experience "Mittelschmerz", a pain that lasts for a day or two in the middle of the menstrual cycle, when the woman ovulates. There is no other significance to it than that the expulsion of the egg from the ovary was painful.

Question 2

what could be causing my severe ovary pain?

Accepted Answer

?ovary: Not to be flippant but how do you know it is your ovary if you do not know what is the cause?  Were you told by a doctor?  Ovarian cysts can be painful, endometriosis, etc.  If you just mean pain 'in the area of' your ovary then other causes are possible as well.  Colitises, diverticulitis, uti, muscle strains, enteritises.  Best to see an md to be examined.

Question 3

when should you be worried about ovary pain?

Accepted Answer

Needs evaluation: If this is the first time you are having such kind of pain, you should seek evaluation by an OB-GYN to get further testing including an ultrasound to determine the cause of pain. If the ovaries appear normal, that can be reassuring and may guide your to identify other sources of pain.

Question 8

ovary pain vs appendicitis difference
how to tell the difference?

Accepted Answer

Clues only: Appendix pain will always be on the right side. Pain from an ovary (or other gynecologic problem) can be either side, often both. Other clues include nausea, vomiting, vaginal discharge or odor, painful urination, previous history of similar pain, and so on. All new, unexplained abdominal or pelvic pain requres medical evaluation ASAP. If severe, vaginal bleeding, or fever, see a doctor right now.

Question 9

Accepted Answer

Need evaluation: You may need to look at other causes of the pain, either GI or urinary. If that workup is negative, the ovary could be removed laparoscopically without effecting your fertility.

Question 10

any way at all to relieve ovary pain? feels like mittelschmerz but i am 59.

Accepted Answer

Underlying reason: At age 59 it's unlikely it's ovarian pain at all, although not impossible. If you have persistent pain it's more likely either GI or gu; i'd strongly suggest at least seeing your primary doctor to help you sort out and where to go next.
