Stabbing Crampy Feeling In Left Side? Does Anyone Know What This Is?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

Hi everyone, hope you are all doing well!:)

I get this stabbing feeling in my left side every month (I am not sure specifically when it happens, but the pain usually lasts around a week at a time and then goes away). It particularly stabs when I sit (like when I sit on the toilet or a chair), when there is pressure on my tail bone for any reason, and when I walk. the pain feels similar to a "stitch in my side" but it's a deeper pain.

Does anyone know what this is? Has it happened to you… read more

I have the same stabbing pain but it’s my right side below my ribs. It’s not constantly but I do have it happen and it’s very noticeable. Also I’m constantly getting nauseous. Severe pain and when I get my period the first 3 days I have the worst cramps that I’m in bed with it now it’s gotten that bad!!

Thank you sooo much for all of your help. It is so nice and validating hearing your experiences are similar (even though it sucks that we all have to go through this). @A MyEndometriosisTeam Member, if you could let me know what the doctors say once they read your ultrasound that would be so great! Our experience does sound super similar. Good luck!

I get the same thing. I have it now actually and I'm about to ovulate. I always get it for about 3-5 days starting around ovulation and it's usually gone after I have ovulated. One of the wonderful issues with endo. Honestly for me, this is the hardest time of the month for me with pain.

Happens to me every month it’s usually on whichever side I ovulate it’s very nagging , it’s deep like you can’t touch it , and mine it’s not below the button so I get confused if it’s my ovary or not but it always happens around that time .
