“Pain in ovary area”
I am experiencing a sharp burning pain in my left side where my ovary is. It started this morning and the pain was off and on but within the last 2 hours it's been constant. I had a partial hysterectomy in 2018 and a few years before that had an ablasion. I am 40 getting ready to turn 41 next month. What could be causing the pain?

Left sided pain can have several possible causes from GYN sources to bowel, colon, urinary and musculoskeletal. Since the pain is persisting it would be best to see a physician, preferably a GYN doctor.
The pain can be coming from several things. 1. Even though you had a Hysterectomy, your ovaries are still going through the normal hormonal cycle and producing follicles (eggs) monthly. The pain could simply be from ovulation or ovarian cyst development. This is a normal part of the ovarian cycle and is when your body has an LH surge that causes the egg to be released.
