Patient's question:
Here is the English translation of your text, with the line breaks preserved as instructed:"Hello Professor, sometimes my lower abdomen on both sides hurts during my ovulation period! Will this affect pregnancy? Will changes in hormone levels affect pregnancy?"
Doctor's answer:
In your case, it is considered to be ovulatory abdominal pain, which refers to abdominal pain occurring in adolescent or premenopausal women between two menstrual periods, around the time of ovulation, and it typically subsides on its own within one or two days.(1) General supportive and symptomatic treatment: Absolute bed rest in a semi-recumbent position to facilitate drainage and fluid discharge, and to help localize inflammation. Increase fluid intake and consume high-calorie, easily digestible semi-liquid diets. Patients with high fever should be given intravenous fluids to prevent dehydration and electrolyte imbalances. Correct constipation by taking Chinese herbal medicines such as senna leaves, or using physiological saline or 1,2,3 enemas. For those in pain and restlessness, sedatives and analgesics can be administered. In acute cases with severe peritoneal irritation symptoms, ice packs or hot water bags can be applied to the painful area (either cold or hot compresses should be used based on the patient's comfort). After 6–7 days, if gynecological examination and laboratory tests (including total white blood cell count and erythrocyte sedimentation rate) confirm that the condition has stabilized, infrared or shortwave diathermy can be used.
(2) Controlling infection: Refer to the smear examination of uterine cavity discharge or bacterial culture and drug sensitivity results to select appropriate antibiotics.
