What Causes Severe Cramps Around Pelvic And Below Chest Area After Having Sex?
I m a 21 year old female. I have a bad cramp and I can t pinpoint the exact source, it seems to be resonating somewhere between my pelvis and the bottom of my rib cage only on the left side of my body. It becomes almost intolerae after intercourse. Any ideas what the cause could be? I have a Mirena IUD and I can feel the string of it but I m worried it has moved and perforated my uterus or that something is wrong with my left ovary.
Hi, Thanks for posting in HCM. I have read your description and understand your concern. What pain you are describing to be experiencing could be due to some pathology in the abdomen like stone in the kidneys/ureter or due to pelvic inflammation. It might be unrelated to the intercourse directly and might be aggravated after the act. Since you are feeling the strings of IUD, it is unlikely to have resulted in perforation of uterus. Kindly get an ultrasound abdomen done to know what could be the cause. Accordingly, based on the findings of the report, you need to consult Urologist or Gynecologist for evaluation and management. Hope the information provided would be helpful. All the best.
