Hello doctor, For the past two days, I am feeling a mild pain on my lower abdomen and having a feeling that my bowels are not getting cleared. I had my last period about two months back. My periods have become irregular since then. Last month, I got examined and was detected having a uterine fibroid. Can the above pain be due to ovulation?
Hi. The best way to check for an ovulation pain or mittelschmerz is to check for LH (luteinizing hormone) surge with an ovulation kit. If the test is positive, then you are likely to ovulate or have ovulated already. The pain can also be due to submucosal fibroid. I suggest you use tablet Meftal Spas 500 mg (combination of Dicycloverine and Mefenamic acid) twice a day for pain relief. Consult your specialized doctor, discuss with him or her, and take medicine with consent. Hot fomentation to the lower abdomen and lower back can be helpful as well.
