A member asked:

I am six weeks pregnant and am having slight but distracting twinges around the lower left abdomen/groin area. should i be concern?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Round ligament: As the uterus begins its' growth in pregnancy the attachment of the round ligament also begins its stretching to accommodate the pregnancy. The attachment is in the inguinal area. By the way, it is time to see your OB MD if you haven't already to begin your OB care.
