OVULATION PAIN EXPLAINED!
Mittleschmerz is also called ovulatory pain or ovulation pain and rightly so.
Mid cycle pain usually start suddenly, coinciding with the moment of release of eggs from the ovary. It is normally a dull pain, occurring on the right or left lower abdomen, depending on which ovary just released the egg. The pain could last from a few minutes to 3 to 8 hours and then disappears.
In some cases, the pain of mittleschmerz may be sharp, severe, cramp-like like menstrual pain it self, lasting a few hours or up to 3 to 6 days.
Mittleschmerz could occur every month or sometimes once in three to four months.
This pain could be severe in some young ladies, causing them to bend over, mimicking serious causes of lower abdominal pain like appendicitis, twisted or ruptured ovarian cyst, and even appendicitis.
What differentiate this pain from the appendicitis, ectopic pregnancy or ovarian twist or rupture is the fact that this pain is recurrent, over months, and all investigations or scans done will come back to be normal.
Mittleschmerz is thought to be due to an accompanying slight bleed into the linings of the wall of the pelvis called the peritoneum at the moment of the release of eggs during ovulation. Ultrasound scan at mid-cycle has been reported to detect a more than usual amount of fluid in the pelvic pouch in as much as 40 percent of women.
Free blood in contact with the peritoneum causes irritation, transmitted as mid-cycle pain.
The bleeding may even track out as vaginal very small vaginal spotting.
The pain is usually in the lower abdomen, right or left side depending on which side an egg is released from.
The pain could be so specific that a woman may be able to tell from which ovary she has released an egg for that month. It may be severe enough to cause disruptions of normal day to day activities.
Not every woman who ovulates feels or experiences mid-cycle pain. It occurs in 1 in 5 women.
Typically, mid cycle pain is common in young women (in the adolescent age group) within a few months to years of starting her period or menstruation, commonly seen in the 11 to 30 year olds, though this pain can occur at any time up to 45years of age.
Mid-cycle pain or Mittleschmerz could be confused for, and needs to be differentiated from appendicitis if it is occurring on the right or in the right ovary, and can also be confused for ectopic pregnancy if there is associated vaginal bleed or spotting.
