Sharp pain.lower left abdomen. it's very tender. when pressed it brings tears. is it possible it's just menstruation related or from gastroparesis?

Severe left lower: quadrant abdominal pain could be caused by diverticulitis, kidney infection or stones, or any number of conditions beside gyn causes. See your doctor for accurate diagnosis and proper treatment.
