You really need to go to a doctor to have this checked out. There are a number of things that could cause pain in that area. Some being serious and some not so serious. Make a doctors appointment and if it gets worse you need to get yourself to an E.R. I hope you feel better soon!

I'm not sure about the bleeding, but the pain could be due to ovulation.  I have had painful ovulation many times.  sometimes it's so extreme that it was at one time taken for appendicitis.  I was told that sometimes an egg bursts and causes a lot of pain, right about mid-cycle.  Tell a gynecologist about it.

I have extemely bad pain on both my ovaries, if its right after your period then you are just probably ovulating, if its before during and after tou might have ovarion systs. I have them and my doctor put me on birth control to reduce the systs. It helps alot. You should go to the gyno, the only thing that you prepare yourself for is when he is examing you and they do a papsmear, you might get a bad cramp like a period cramp it lasts only 2 seconds i wouldnt lie i am the biggest wimp when it comes to pain. You will be fine. If your on long island you should see Dr. John Vullo in West Islip he is great one of the top gyno's. Thats who i see.

I take advil which is the only pain killer that will take away my cramps. Try taking a hot shower letting the water hit your lower back. Also heating pads on your lower abdomen can help soothe. But nothing will really take away the pain except pain killers.

at the most basic level, there is something that is irritating going on in the lower abdomen.  but there are a lot of possibilities.  it could be something as simple as a large gas bubble that is putting pressure on the intestines.  it could be something more serious involving the intestines, such as a blockage, rupture, or infection, such as appendicitis.  you don't say if you are female, but if you are, then the reproductive organs could also be the source of the pain, like an ovarian cyst, uterine infection, ovulation, etc.\n\nif the pain is minor, and you don't have a fever, you could wait a while.  if it has been going on for a while, or if the pain is severe, you should see a doctor immediately.

I have a friend who has the same problem but she gets it everytime she has her period. The only thing i can think of is to get on birth control. They will make you regular and reduce pain. Ask your doctor about it I am sure he/she will help.

Lay a heating pad on your lower abdomen.  Stay away from caffeine during your period.  It tends to make cramps worse.  Ibuprofen works well.  You can also get put on birth control pills, they help regulate periods and also decrease menstrual cramps.  You can also get a prescription for prescription strength ibuprofen, it works really well.

Some cramping is normal as the uterus stretches, but if it gets severe along with bleeding, then this is something to call your doctor about.

All women have some cramping before and during their periods due to the release of prostaglandins, but pain like that which you describe is never normal.  See your doc to talk about possible reasons, i.e., adenomyosis, fibroids, Endometriosis.  Pain should never cripple you like that; it's your body's way of saying something is wrong.  A lot of women who have Endometriosis of their uterosacral nerve and surrounding region describe what you are saying, so see your gyn to be on the safe side.  Good luck!

It could be normal or it could be a miscarriage. If you are experiencing bad pains then I would go to the doctor to make sure it isn't a miscarriage. You could take a pregnancy test first and it would tell you. It is normal to have some blood clots though. Sometimes more than other times.

The muscles of the uterus and intestines are called smooth muscles.  They are close together in your abdomen.  My doctor told me that when one is contracting it can and often does cause all other smooth muscles it is in contact with to begin contracting as well.  So yes, this can/will happen with cramps during menstruation.

if it's lower left, that's your large intestine.  You may need to just get things moving if it's gas or a little blockage.  If you have some cramping as well, your body might be trying to get rid of something you ate and it didn't like.  Take a walk, drink lots of water (warm preferably), and drink some prune juice.  You should feel some relief in a few hours, by latest next morning.  If it's still there, call your doctor.  Hope that helps!

Stomachaches usually come with nausea, cramps (I'm assuming menstrual cramps) occur in the lower abdominal area and more intensely. Stomachaches are caused mostly by an unhappy tummy, cramps are caused by overexertion. If you have been eating questionable things like junk foods or improperly cooked foods or no foods at all and you begin to experience pain and nausea, you have a stomachache. If you have been exercising or you are going through your period, you have cramps. Prevent cramps by stretching before exercise and consuming foods high in potassium and low in sodium, like bananas.

I researched your problems. I came up with this thing, and you might have menorrhagia. Although I have a heavy period, my cramps probably aren't nearly as bad as yours. You should go to a OB/GYN and schedule an appointment to see if you have that.\n\nHere's the website:\n\nhttp://www.mayoclinic.com/health/menorrhagia/DS00394/DSECTION=2\n\nI'm glad I could be of help!\nCrystal. <3

Try to eat right and do cardio exercising, preferably before your cycle (for obvious reasons). This will cut down on cramps.
