I was just wondering how many of you ladies experienced some pain with ovulation. Sometimes when I ovulate, I get a pain on my side. It's bearable, but it can get really uncomfortable. Just curious...

Hey Paris!

I get it every month. I always have. It's called Mittelschmerz. When the follicle rupture and releases the egg, some fluid is released also. The fluid can irritate your lining. It's really nothing to be concerned about and should only last a couple days.

Here's a link with more info:
