Abdominal pain during ovulation

Introduction

Introduction Some women have mild abdominal pain two weeks before menstruation and can't find any problems. This situation is ovulatory abdominal pain.

Cause

Cause

Abdominal pain caused by ovulation is called ovulatory abdominal pain. During the development of the follicles, the volume of follicles increases, the follicular fluid increases, and gradually moves to the surface of the ovary, protruding from the ovarian capsule. When the egg cells are fully developed, the follicular membrane and ovarian capsule will dissolve and rupture, and the egg cells will be slowly extruded. This is ovulation. During ovulation, the fluid in the follicles and follicles overflows into the abdominal cavity, irritating the peritoneum, causing abdominal pain, which is ovulatory abdominal pain. If the ovaries on both sides take turns to ovulate, abdominal pain may occur on both sides of the lower abdomen every month.
