Get checked: Sharp abdominal pain may be related to ovarian cyst (several types) or function. If it moves to the right lower quadrant , it could be appendicitis. Have your family physician examine you , and determine if ct scan is necessary. Do not wait too long, or you risk a rupture of the appendix , with severe infection(sepsis).

See a doctor now!: Pain that persists like yours requires evaluation. It may be caused by a number of conditions, such as appendicitis, tubal infection, ovarian cysts, bowel problems, etc. See your doctor or go to a hospital emergency room immediately.
