A member asked:

Is there any medical treatment for mittelschmerz(ovulation pain)?

Dr. Seth Derman answered

Specializes in Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility

A few things: Your doc will examine you first to see if there is an obvious reason. He/she can give you pain medications, treat with hormones such as birth control pills or do a laparoscopy to look for endometriosis.
