Mature women please, pain in pelvic area.?

I know I should go to a Dr, but I am broke and am in between health insurances.

okay, so a couple weeks ago I started to get this really bad pain. It is right next to where my pelvic bone sticks out, to the right of it, that little area that doctors usually push down on when you go for a checkup? well it hurts when it is pushed down, and if I am sitting and I move a certain way it will feel like a sharp shooting pain. Also last night and a couple nights ago while my boyfriend and I were having sex, it really hurt, especially last night. sometimes I wont notice it and other times, it will be this constant dulling pain when I am going throughout my day. Also when I had my period last, I only had it for about 2 or 3 days and it was really light, and mine is usually light, except on the first 2 days it is really heavy.

anyone know what it could be, I have a couple idea's but im not really sure.

thanks for you imput.

Abdominal/pelvic pain that is similar to that of period cramping may indicate a problem in a reproductive organ (like the pain around your ovaries or uterus).

This includes conditions such as endometriosis (when tissue from the uterus is displaced to somewhere else like the pelvic wall or ovaries), uterine fibroids (thick bands of muscular and fibrous tissue in the uterus), ovarian cysts, ovarian cancer (rare), or pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) infection of the reproductive organs, usually from a sexually transmitted disease.

If you have pain in your ovary area, you might have an ovarian cyst. I have experienced that same type of pain whenever I have had an ovarian cyst. I was also diagnosed with endometriosis last year which caused me severe pelvic pain and intense and painful period cramping.

If you鈥檙e experiencing pain during or after sex there may be several factors that are contributing to the pain you feel. For women there are a number of physical conditions that may make sex hurt, including:

* Pelvic Inflammatory Disease
* Endometriosis
* Ovarian cysts
* Interstitial cystitis
* Vaginismus
* Vulvodynia
* Some sexually transmitted diseases
* Urinary infections
* Yeast infections
* Vaginal dryness
* Physical injury and chronic pain

Based on your symptoms and what you wrote, I would recommend that you should see your doctor/gynaecologist, just to rule out any serious causes.

Good luck :)

It maybe an ovarian cyst or inflammation from an infection of some sort. Although you do not have insurance etc. you need to be seen by someone before irreversible damage is done. Consider a clinic who will allow you to pay on a sliding scale. Or, consider the ER. I have had several cysts and infections over the years, please do not ignore this.
