    Severe sharp pain in pelvic area with period

    I posted this in the menstrual cycle, but I thought I might post it here too.

    I just found this website and am hoping that someone will be able to help me. My period started Monday (10/26). Later that evening I started cramping pretty bad but soon after the cramping turned into severe sharp pain (felt like a knife stabbing/cutting) in my pelvic area, just right above the pelvic bone. I used ibuprofen and a heating pad which barely helped. The pain was so bad I felt like crying and I couldn't hold my youngest boy (14 months). When I woke up Tuesday I still had some pain but mostly when I was up on my feet. It also hurts more if I carry anything. It's kinda hard to explain, but my insides feel like I've just given birth. The pain isn't as severe now, but this just doesn't feel normal. I have a doc appt on Nov 12 for my yearly pap and I'll be sure to talk to the doc about this then, but was just wondering if anyone has experienced anything similar.

    Thanks in advance!

    my wife has and still does.

    she went to the doc a couple of months ago. ultrasound showed ovarian cysts.

    unfortunately according to her doc, not much to do about them. they just dissolve on their own.
