The past few days I have started experiencing stomach pain, right around my bellybutton area. I had my gallbladder out a month ago and was hoping that would resolve my ibs symptoms, and it has until a few days ago. I'm in the window of my ovulation date. Does anyone else with endo have ibs flare-ups around ovulation? I always get it with my period but this is new.....

Yes sadly this is farely common with endometriosis as the chemicals released by endo cells can cause inflamation in the bowel

I was just about to ask the same question, except my pain is up higher and radiates to my back. I also had my galbladder taken out so its not that. It really hurts! I also get really bad acid reflux and burp constantly. The only difference for me is i am not ovulating i am on the depo shot, however i still get what seems to be “cycle pain”
