A member asked:

What organs are in the left lower quadrant of the abdomen?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Very few: Your descending and sigmoid colon. Your left oviduct and ovary, if you were a woman. Depending on whether or not there are large fibroids, or a baby, the uterus may sit in the left lower quadrant.

Dr Hoepfner and another doctor agreed

The lower-left quadrant of my abdomen sticks out 5-10mm further than the right. No lumps or bumps, just a diffuse bulge. Occasionally a little sore like a runner's side-stitch. I'm lean and feel healthy. Should I see a doctor? Worried it's a tumor.
