Aching lower abdomen??

Hi again!

I thought for sure I was pregnant this month, but now i have no idea what's going on! I have been having lower abdominal pain on my left side, like minor cramps...sometimes it's on the right and the middle, but mostly on the left. I have been getting SO nauseous lately, haven't thrown up, but I never do, I kinda hate it so I refuse to let my body do it. Anyway, my lower back started hurting today, and I am so tired...Sorry if TMI, but I have been all over my husband lately...and my last period was strange, lighter than usual, but started at the same time and was the same length. just spotting in the beginning and a lot at the end. It's been a week and a half (two weeks tues) since i had started that period. i have taken hpts but they are all negative, and the aching lower ab doesn't go away. The only thing i can figure is it's connected to the kidney infection i had before my last period when i was on antibiotics. i'm on birth control, so i could've technically gotten pregnant while on antibiotics, but maybe they just wreaked havoc on my system? I guess my question is how many of you have had lower abdominal pain, especially on the left? Did you end up being pregnant? Or was it a cyst or something else? I would really appreciate any responses, I'll be going to the doctor tuesday, so I'll let you all know. Thanks for all your responses!

I finally called my doctor this morning about the progesterone symptoms...they said that the progesterone doesn't cause these types of symptoms. So, I am going to go in tomorrow for a pregancy test and check in with the doc.

I can just see AF showing up now....

Well today I went to the doctor finally, and she said i have a cyst and a yeast infection. How's that for a kick in pants? That's so not fair. Turns out it was pretty close to getting pregnant though, the antibiotics really did affect my birth control and hormones a lot. Well, I need to talk to my husband, see if he would want to have a baby not too far from now. This is always so sad. Thank you all for your help. I'll be lurking, hoping as always. Best of luck to all of you.

yes i have, My lower abdomin had been aching real bad. I took a pregnancy test it said positive. I was exposed to bug spray and kersine fumes right before all these pains occured. Maybe the chemicals did something to me if I am pregnant.

LOL Men...give you a dog in place of a baby. But its something at least he must feel bad for not letting you have a baby just yet. :) I have a dog I have had since he was 3 weeks old, and he was and is a baby. Spoil them right and they won't know there not. Good Luck. Hope you get your chance soon.

I still wonder about the dr. appt. though. She said she couldn't find a cyst, but if it gets worse to go back, otherwise it should go away on it's own. Should I have gotten a blood test? they did a urine test but -. i've been wondering about that diagnosis though. i guess i'll wait for good ol' af to show up, maybe she wont... :0) there's always hope. Thanks for the encouragement, i really need it.
