Why does the right side of a woman's belly button hurt?

Women are very likely to suffer from stomach pain, and there is a high possibility that they have some gynecological disease. The most typical symptom is pain in the belly button. Because it has a relatively large impact on life, when this situation happens, people are very anxious. So, what is the cause of pain on the right side of a woman’s belly button? Let’s take a closer look at it below.

Uterine fibroids are a very common gynecological disease and one of the most common types of benign tumors of the genitals. Although uterine fibroids belong to the category of benign tumors, we should not ignore the treatment of uterine fibroids. Before treating the disease, a diagnosis of uterine fibroids is required and you should not rush into medical treatment.

The diagnosis of uterine fibroids should be made with caution because the symptoms of uterine fibroids are similar to many gynecological diseases and can easily be confused. When uterine fibroids are complicated by cystic changes, they can easily be misdiagnosed as a pregnant uterus. Among uterine diseases during pregnancy, especially in pregnant women over 40 years old or with a history of miscarriage, they may also be misdiagnosed as uterine fibroids. This shows that there are indeed many similarities in symptoms between uterine fibroids and uterine pregnancy, otherwise these two diseases would not be confused together.

To distinguish whether the patient has uterine fibroid disease or a pregnant uterus, other methods are needed. Clinically, when encountering a woman of childbearing age with a history of amenorrhea, the possibility of pregnancy should be considered first. It is not difficult to confirm the diagnosis through B-type ultrasound examination or hCG measurement. If necessary, curettage can be used for identification.

At the same time, special attention should be paid to the occurrence of uterine fibroids combined with pregnancy. At this time, the uterus is larger than the month of menopause, the shape is often irregular, and the texture is harder. Type B ultrasound examination can assist in the diagnosis.

The above is an introduction to what causes pain on the right side of a woman’s belly button. I hope it will help women understand. The pain on the right side of a woman's belly button is most likely caused by uterine fibroids. At this time, it is best to go to a regular gynecological hospital for diagnosis, clearly understand your condition, and then take effective measures to treat it to prevent more serious consequences.
