I was at an emergency appoint mentioned for exactly this today. The doctor thinks it is a chronic flare up of IBS. But yes, the worry and discomfort ramp up the anxiety. Get it checked for peace of mind.

could be diverticulitis. I’ve had same symptoms and don’t have any ovaries. diagnosed with diverticulitis and given antibiotics.

Please don’t google. I know we want answers but trying to self diagnose makes the anxiety worse.
I’ve had back,abdominal, leg, hip and so much other pain. I had so many tests and everything comes back good. It HAS to be hormones. I’m 45 years old and this peri stuff is a monster.. Hang in there , try to think positive thoughts, and just know you’re going to be fine..
