What Causes Pressure In The Stomach?

Hi, ok I had a tubaligation 3 years. Ago. And now for about 6 days I have been having lots of pressure in my lower stomach a little crampy on each side of my lower part of my stomach then it would do away and come back again but the pressure stays for a long time, I have been tired, and mody.. So I assumed my period would be here cause I had it last month on the 7th of january, I added up the day so I took the test yesterday and it was negative what could be going on with me? Also I have thryoid diease. N iam taking meds for that, would that be why iam having symptoms like this?

Hi.
Thanks for your query and an elucidate history and possibility of tubal ligations, thyroid problem and period to be related to the pains .
You have a pain in the lower abdomen on both the sides.
Intermittent and like a pressure.
This can be due to Colitis as both sides of the colon are usually affected.
This may not be due to any problem with pregnancy as you already have tubal ligation.
If the thyroid tests area normal , nothing to worry about. Go for fresh thyroid tests to see if they are normal or not, if not you need to have change in the dosage.
Take a mild laxative to clear the large bowel and you probably may be alright.
If required you can have additional tests of blood, urine and stool and if still not helped by the medicines get colonoscopy nad ultrasonography done.
