So you have lower abdominal pain? Pain in that region can come from the uterus/ovaries but also from the bladder, the intestines and even referred from a lower spinal problem. Your doctor will need to know if the pain is associated with periods or meals or passing urine. Is the pain constant or is it a pulling pain? Any change in urinary habits? Any vaginal discharge? Any associated fever?
Your doctor will then have to do a proper physical examination, which may include a rectal and vaginal examination. Your symptoms can relate to an infection of the uterus/fallopian tubes, a bladder infection or a hormonal disorder or a benign tumour of the womb. The possibilities are numerous and that's why you should see your doctor to consider all the possibilities and make an accurate diagnosis.
