General & Family Physician,  's  Response
HI,
I understand your concern.
Actually there are multiple causes of groin pain in female, like,
Muscle pulls/inflammations, weakness of bone, problems of hip joint,Kidney, intestinal problems. Ovarian cysts etc.
Though you need investigations to rule out all above causes,
Your description of your pain being unpredictable & the pain in groin is to the extent of right leg being giving way--suggests inflammation of a bursa ( ileopsoas)around hip joint causes the pain in groin in particular movement only,so it comes randomly
Non steroidal anti inflmatory drugs ( Ibuprofen) & gentle groin streching & strengthening exercises help.
Thanks.
