Pain : Pain at midcycle is usually pain from ovulation, if it is before a pregnancy has been documented. However, pain in the ovary region after pregnancy can represent a "corpus luteum cyst", which is a cyst on the ovary that feeds the pregnancy prior to implantation of the fetus on the placenta. Pain during pregnancy can also be "round ligament pain" as the uterus enlarges. If a patient is pregnant and has severe ovarian pain however, then rarely ectopic pregnancy (tubal) should be considered, but fortunately that is very rare and is usually accompanied by spotting. If a patient had persistent pain and is pregnant then they should consult their gynecologist.
