Anyone have a retroverted tilted uterus? I suspect some of my pain is a result of this position but doctors always say it doesn't create pain..... I am skeptical.

I have retroflex uterus which I believe is the same thing and it causes a lot of back pain for me. My OBGYN that I see who specializes in Endo and fertility problems say it most definately causes pain in women. Some don't notice while others like us do. I have low to mid back pain that radiates around to the ovaries. So Yes it can cause pain.

Pretty much. I get really achey and cramping in my legs, pelvic area and lower back a day or two before my period starts then it will stay until I am done with my period. I unfort also have the upset stomach and have to keep using the bathroom :/

Interesting, I have another close friend with endo and tilted uterus. We've talked about it and it seems to be similar pain patterns.... pain a day or two before pd then 1-2 days in. Low back and leg pain is the worst of it. Similar experience?
