What are the causes of abdominal pain in the middle of a cycle?

Such pain is very often caused by bleeding from the ovary, however, this bleeding is minor. It occurs mainly in the middle of the cycle. This bleeding often irritates the abdominal wall, which causes it to inflame and ache. Later, the bleeding does not bother, the blood coagulates. But pain during bleeding can be both strong and weak. It depends on the characteristics of the woman’s body and the nature of the bleeding - whether it is strong or weak.

One of the causes of abdominal pain in the middle of a cycle can be the distance between the abdominal wall and the ovary. If it is small, the pain may be more intense. And the pain in the middle of the cycle is usually caused by ovulation - the release of an egg from the ovary. Although ovulation causes severe pain in the lower abdomen, it does not provoke other diseases of the urogenital system. This is a positive thing. It is also good that these pains do not provoke additional diseases of the reproductive system.

Abdominal or mid-abdominal pain during a cycle can be the result of many diseases of the reproductive system.

If such pains occur, it is best to immediately consult a doctor to find out the reasons. If the urinogenital system is healthy, then it can be diseases of the pelvic organs. Causes can also be stretching of the muscles, as well as ligaments connecting the internal organs.

Emotions caused by stress can damage the health of a woman’s internal organs. But how can stress affect the health of the liver or kidneys? Very simple. The organs are attached to the spinal column with ligaments. When a woman is nervous or shocked, ligaments are spasmed and organs can change position. In this way. Nerve endings and vessels that permeate organs can also twist, and this causes severe pain. If this coincides with the middle of the cycle, the pain may increase. Cramps caused by muscle contraction must be treated to neutralize the pain. The doctor will advise and help to cope with this condition.
