Ovulation pain

Hi,

My ectopic was surgically removed in September last year, it took 15 weeks for my period to come back. I’m struggling with ovulation pain, has anyone else struggled or struggling with it now? How long did it take to settle down? Any tips on what to do to relieve the pain?

(My GP is aware and I have a scan booked to check everything is okay).

Thankyou in advance

Dear Daisy,

I am so sorry to hear of your continued discomfort, many women experience ovulation pain post ectopic pregnancy when they didn’t before, I did too. I experienced it until I next fell pregnant, so never got to the bottom of a cause as I became pregnant just before my scan was booked.

I am glad to hear that you have a scan booked, and you may get some answers from this.

Sending much love,
