A member asked:

Hi, i have pain in my abdomen that i feel if i push on my stomach or even while pushing when peeing, otherwise i don't. it's usually in the left lower side. i think it started when i recently started using tampons. can someone help please?

If this discomfort isn't accompanied by bowel symptoms and if you have a normal abdominal examination with no hernias & a normal pelvic examination, I would consider this a harmless muscular discomfort. I don't see a connection with tampon use. Your physician or gynecologist can further advise you after examining you.

Many things in the abdomen can cause this. Try not holding urine too long, keep regular bowel movements and wear the right size tampon. If this does not help pl see your doc. Good luck.
