Why do I often get side stitches and pass gas after ovulation?

Patient's question:

I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and cold drafts. Could you please explain why I often get side stitches and pass gas after ovulation?

Doctor's answer:

When experiencing side stitches, you can take deep breaths promptly, then hold your breath, and then clench your fists to tap the left and right sides of your chest from top to bottom. Then, slowly exhale deeply. Alternatively, after taking a deep breath, ask someone to clench their fists and tap your chest and back from top to bottom. Or, lie on a padded surface and roll back and forth repeatedly until the pain gradually subsides.
In your case, you need to have 4D ultrasound, amniocentesis, and other examinations done at the hospital to check the fetal development. You should also focus on a balanced diet, avoid picky eating, and drink more bone broth. Avoid spicy, alcoholic, and other irritating foods.
