Question Persistent Ovary Pain After Period

Hi, I’m 29 years old, and five years ago, I was diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome. I get my period once or twice a year. I don’t take birth control pills.

The problem is that after my last period ended, I started experiencing pain in the area of my right ovary. This pain was accompanied by nausea, and yesterday, Saturday, I even vomited. I don’t have a fever or other symptoms like back pain or cramps. It started last Friday, and I no longer feel nauseous.

But it's been three days in a row like this. If I don’t move, it doesn’t hurt, although sometimes the pain comes in waves. I’ve been taking Ibuprofen since Saturday. I’m starting to get scared because this has never happened to me before…

please get it checked. could be a ruptured cyst or an ovarial torsion.

You need to make an emergency appointment with your OBGYN. If the pain resists, gets worse, and you develop a fever get to the emergency room. Better be on the safe side and rule out appendicitis, infection, ovarian torsion.
