Schedule a visit: If this is happening consistently i would schedule a visit with your doctor to be evaluated for a hernia. Young women often have undiagnosed hernias in what is called the inguinal area. Sneezing can put pressure there causing pain.

See MD soon: Sneezing increases abdominal and pelvic pressure and tightens abdominal muscles. Hernias of groin or abdominal wall can be aggravated by sneeze or cough. Problems with internal organs , bowel or gyn, e.g. Appendicitis, diverticulitis, inflamed bowel, ovarian cyst, etc. Can also. See md.
