I have a dull pain in my lower abdomen after having sex during ovulation.

Women have a period of ovulation every month. During the ovulation period, the possibility of conception through sexual intercourse is relatively higher, but the symptoms exhibited by each woman during the ovulation period are different. For example, some women may experience abdominal pain after having sex during their ovulation period. In this case, you should pay attention to understand the cause. So why does the lower abdomen always ache after having sex during the ovulation period?

1. If your menstrual cycle is regular, occurring every 28 days, then your ovulation day is around the 14th day before your next menstrual period. After the ovulatory follicle matures, the egg breaks through the follicular membrane and is discharged into the abdominal cavity. The follicular fluid and egg stimulate the peritoneum and cause lower abdominal pain and discomfort. Some people may also have a small amount of bleeding. This is a physiological phenomenon and it is recommended not to be overly nervous. If the lower abdominal pain is severe, pelvic adnexitis or corpus luteum rupture and bleeding cannot be ruled out. It is recommended to go to the hospital for a color Doppler ultrasound examination in time.

2. If a woman experiences persistent dull pain in the lower abdomen after having sex during her ovulation period, she should consider whether it is a symptom of pelvic inflammatory disease caused by having sex. At this time, it may also be accompanied by distension in the lower abdomen and pain in the anus. You need to go to the hospital for a gynecological examination with color Doppler ultrasound and internal gynecological examination to confirm whether it is pelvic inflammatory disease. If it is an attack of pelvic inflammatory disease, symptomatic anti-inflammatory and analgesic treatment is usually required. If you are not allergic to cephalosporin, you can consider taking cephalosporin antibiotics and ornidazole for combined anti-inflammatory and analgesic treatment.

3. Most of the dull pain in women's lower abdomen is caused by gynecological inflammation, and some are caused by internal or surgical factors. The dull pain in the lower abdomen after having sex during the ovulation period is mainly caused by ovulation. During the ovulation period, there is a feeling of distension and pain in the lower abdomen, which is caused by the rupture of the follicle. Generally speaking, this pain does not affect health and has no adverse consequences. However, in a very small number of people, due to large rupture of the ovarian follicle during ovulation, damage to small blood vessels causes ovarian rupture and intra-abdominal bleeding, resulting in gynecological emergencies and requiring treatment in the hospital.
