Hi Dr Hamid,

I am a 26 year old woman who has been having unprotected sex with my husband
for about a year and a half now. When I ovulate, I have sharp pain on either
side, and that's how I know that I've ovulated. I chart my cycles online and
they have been pretty accurate. I always feel ovulation pain when the online
chart says to expect it. This month I ovulated around April 1st, and on April
6th I had yet again what felt like ovulation pain. I'm assuming this could be
implantation pain? Well, from that day on I had sharp to dull intermediate
cramping in my pelvic area and a medium grade low back ache. I've had a few days
of sore heavy breasts, but that has since subsided. I am due to start my cycle
tomorrow, and have had some brown spotting yesterday and today, with today being
more than yesterday. I usually start this kind of spotting a few days before I
start my period, however I've never had cramping 5 days after ovulation, I've
never had this cramping for over a week, with unrelenting back pain. I don't
want to assume that this could be pregnancy only, if there could be something
else. I appreciate any knowledge you could give me regarding this.

Thanks!
Nickel

"abnormal" symptoms persist like this;there could be other possibilities;other
problems in the uterus,colonic problem,acute appendicitis or even urine
