Pelvic Pain Clicky Poll

I'm dealing with this and definitely not self-diagnosing as an issue, but just out of curiosity...

If you do get it, do you know what causes it?

SS - did not have cramps prior to #1. no TWW yet so I have no idea. My guess will be no... I'm not really a symptom spotter and would just assume its poop.

Same as @emilie818, I often get twinges of pain but never anything serious.

Sometimes it's pain where my left ovary would be. Sometimes it's a tugging feeling. Sometimes it's like someone is stabbing me in the vag from the inside out. Yep, that last one is always fun.

Lol anytime I have any type of cramp or pain I either blame AF or poop.

True hip joint pain manifests in the groin region and can sometimes be confused with reproductive organ pain.

ETA- Tapatalk fail. Didn't realize it was a poll for during the TWW.

"Pelvic pain" is a broad concept and can be attributed to intestines, uterus, bladder, etc.

That said, do I get pelvic pain in the two week window? Yes. My bladder is insanely sensitive around my period. I basically always have pelvic pain but the pain is worse after ovulation. I can tell that it's my bladder based on my history with bladder problems and the placement of the pain (very low).

Just before my period starts (maybe a day or two before) I get a strong almost tearing sensation low in my pelvis on the right side. By the next day, that sensation is on the left. Then I get my period.

Lazy's answer is always poop

Also - after my HSG, I realize that my uterus is not sitting perfectly center in my pelvis like the diagrams show. It's far more wonky and off-center than that. Just bear that in mind while you're thinking about pain and what is located where you're feeling it.

I've randomly gotten some burning cramps around 5-7dpo. Never really paid much attention to it, but it's odd I get it around the same time every TWW.

I tend to have quite a bit of pelvic pain/cramps before and after O. During the TWW, it's more of a pinching feeling, uncomfortable but not excutiating.

[squeakyduck]

I have pelvic pain all month long. It's ibs, but it gets really bad right around my period. I also get ovulation cramps. I have, like, 5 custom cramp options in FF for all the different types.

[ghostmonkey]

Yay I'm no longer frequently?

I had some pelvic floor issues and resolving those has taken care of a large amount of it, but there is still some. It changes where it is at at times and the primary place it causes pain leads me to believe that it has nothing to do with my uterus at all. But that's just me and Dr Google trying to figure out what everyone has missed for the last 8 years.

Thanks for the insight everyone!

I have pelvic pain but mine is caused my endo. It got a little better after my lap 6 months ago but it is already bad again. I usually have a good amount of ovary pain at the time of ovulation. Then it starts up again about 7 dpo and it gets increasingly worse until my period. The day before my period usually starts I get horrendous cramps.
