Ovulation abdominal pain is a physiological abdominal pain, which is caused by the rupture of the ovarian follicle when the woman's ovaries ovulate and the stimulation of the peritoneum by the follicular fluid after ovulation. Therefore, the abdominal pain is relatively mild. Normally, the two ovaries in a woman's body ovulate in turn, once a month, so abdominal pain also occurs cyclically once a month, often with pain alternating between the left and right lower abdomen. Ovulation usually occurs between two menstrual periods, that is, on the 13th to 16th day of the menstrual cycle. But the length of each person's menstrual cycle varies, and it usually occurs 14 days before the next menstrual period.

Although ovulation pain is a physiological reaction, generally speaking, this pain does not affect health, has no adverse consequences, and will not cause infertility. However, in a very small number of people, due to large rupture of the ovulatory follicles during ovulation, damage to small blood vessels causes ovarian rupture and intra-abdominal bleeding, resulting in gynecological emergencies and requiring treatment in the hospital. If the abdominal pain is severe, you can take painkillers temporarily. If it occurs regularly every month, you can take short-acting contraceptives for a period of time under the guidance of a doctor to improve the symptoms. Seek medical attention if necessary.
