Why does a woman have pain in the lower left side of her abdomen?

1. Ovulation abdominal pain

When adolescent girls ovulate, the follicle ruptures and the follicular fluid may have a certain stimulating effect on the peritoneum, so they sometimes experience slight abdominal pain that alternates between the left and right sides once a month. This is physiological, and the symptoms are mostly unilateral lower abdominal pain, dull pain or heaviness-like pain. Some girls also have a small amount of vaginal bleeding, that is, bleeding during ovulation, which usually disappears on its own after one or two days, and generally does not exceed seven days. This type of abdominal pain usually does not cause any pathological changes, and gynecological examination is completely normal. It is physiological abdominal pain and generally does not require treatment.

2. Dysmenorrhea

Dysmenorrhea is divided into primary and secondary dysmenorrhea. Primary pain is often seen in adolescent girls. It is related to the level of prostaglandins in the body, cold, emotional and psychological factors, but there is no organic disease. It can generally heal itself with age or after marriage and childbirth. Secondary pain is often caused by endometriosis and adenomyosis. The symptoms include gradually increasing pain, often in a cyclical pattern, or dull pain in the lower abdomen during non-menstrual periods that worsens before and after menstruation. In addition, it is often accompanied by infertility and menstrual cycle disorders, which often require drug treatment.

3. Ovarian Corpus Luteum Rupture

This is caused by excessive bleeding in the corpus luteum, accompanied by sudden onset of abdominal pain in the lower abdomen or one side, and in severe cases, shock may occur. Most cases of ovarian corpus luteum rupture occur between days 0 and 26 of the menstrual cycle, and lower abdominal pain may occur with varying degrees of severity.

4. Ovarian cyst pedicle torsion or rupture

This is because the cyst has a long pedicle, a large volume, no adhesions to the four sides, and is highly mobile, and twists when affected by intestinal peristalsis or changes in body position. When the pedicle of an ovarian cyst is twisted, pain suddenly occurs on one side of the lower abdomen, which is persistent colic, often accompanied by nausea and vomiting; there may be obvious tenderness and muscle tension in the abdomen; digital rectal examination may reveal swollen and tender appendages. Ovarian cysts may also rupture, and the contents of the cysts may irritate the peritoneum and cause severe pain. B-ultrasound examination can confirm the diagnosis. Emergency surgery is usually required.
