Why does the right ovary hurt? What causes acute ovarian pain? Does it suggest that there is an infection in the sore ovary? Could Right Ovarian Pain Affect Fertility? Can ovarian pain delay trying for a baby? The question is answered by the drug. Anna Mitschke.
Why does the right ovary hurt?
Hello. I decided to write a message to you because I have been struggling with a terrible one for a long time pain in the ovaries. I am 30 years old and have been married for 5 years. I don’t know if this is important news, but I have sex on a regular basis every week. My husband and I use contraception, although we take a break from time to time. As for the methods, condoms are the main ones. Once, I used a contraceptive patch for a month, but gave up. It’s so fast. As for pain, it’s acute. I feel the stinging mainly in my right ovary.
What could this mean? Is the pain in the right ovary any sign that an infection has got into it? Ever since the pain started, I feel irritable. The worst thing is when the pain radiates and I can feel it all the way in my back. In addition, I have a headache and it is hard for me to concentrate on work, not to mention family life. Will the pain in the right ovary affect my fertility? My husband and I want to start trying for a baby, but is this pain a sign not to do it now? Finally, I would like to add that my entire abdomen does not hurt. Regards Asia.
The doctor explains the causes of pain in the right ovary
The pain in the right ovary is located in the lower abdomen. It should be remembered that there are many medical conditions that can manifest as pain in this location. The diseases that give pain symptoms in the right lower abdominal quadrant include appendicitis, intestinal obstruction, inflammatory bowel disease, ileocecal intussusception, renal colic, pyelonephritis, adnexitis, ovarian cyst, cyst rupture, ovarian rupture, ectopic pregnancy. , endometriosis, pelvic abscess, purulent inflammation of the sacroiliac joint, hernia, or tumors.
Additional accompanying symptoms, illnesses and family burden are important. The ovary is a paired organ that is located intraperitoneally. It lies near the side wall of the pelvis. It has an oval-flattened shape. Responsible for the production of eggs and hormones. Ovarian pain is more common on the right side because of its anatomy. The blood from the left ovary flows into the left renal vein, and from the right ovary directly into the inferior vena cava. As a result, the right ovary has better blood drainage. This makes ovulation slower in the left ovary and faster in the right ovary.
Approx. On the 14th day of the menstrual cycle, ovulation occurs. The time it takes for ovulation to occur may vary among women. Usually it is between 12 and 16 days. The egg is released there. This causes pain symptoms in some patients. I suggest visiting a gynecologist and obstetrician. After collecting a complete interview and examining the patient, the doctor will decide on the need for further diagnosis. If necessary, he will initiate the appropriate treatment.
In the case of acute and sudden abdominal pain, you should visit the emergency department. Urgent intervention may be necessary. Additionally, it is worth going to the doctor before planning pregnancy. This will allow you to perform tests and incorporate the necessary supplementation.
