Egg Pain?

[Indo]

Hi Folks

Just a very quick question, my OH and I are trying and on Sunday she had a very quick short, stabbing pain where her ovaries are - it lasted less than a second and felt fine straight after. She mentioned that she picked something up suggesting that you do feel something when the egg is released - has anyone heard of this before?

Also, I've doubled my dosage of Zinc and Folic - there was nothing on the container about safe limits (surprising). Does anyone know if there is a safe limit with these vitamins?

Thanks in advance folks.

Can't say I know exactly where my ovaries are, but never heard of a pain like that when the egg is released. It sounds like a bad pain. Probably just a twinge and unrelated to preg?

Don't know about the effects of vitamins on these things. I prefer to get my vitamins from eating healthily

I get a pain when I am ovulating and am generally more away of it on my left side than my right side so don't tend to get it every month but its a very obvious pain where I am guessing my ovaries are! it only lasts for about a day and a half on and off and yes sometimes its a short stabbing pain other times its a constant dull ache. I am using persona and it definitely coincides with the times persona says I should be ovulating. Its nothing to worry about in fact its a good thing because you can tell when to do the deed. Sorry don't know about the tablets and how many you should take.

I've no idea about the zinc etc, but the name for ovulation pain mittelschmertz, which means miidle pain as it comes in the middle of a woman's cycle. If you seacrh that it will come up with lots more info if you really want it lol.
