If you're in pain, and there's a cure, why wouldn't you have surgery and get it over with. Fibroid tumors are not a big thing, but can (rare but possible) develop into a bigger problem, which I'm sure your doctor told you. If you trust your doctor, go with their recommendation. If you're unsure, get a second opinion.

I have a few ideas.\n\nTo narrow it down...if the pain is in the middle of the pelvis, it is usually from your uterus.  If it is on one side, or both, it is usually from the fallopian tuves or ovaries.  Since you mentioned left side pain, I am guessing it's the latter.\n\nIf it is during deep thrusting it could be endometriosis, a tilted uterus,  or adhesions or fibroids.\n\nAlso, try to avoid using douche, scented pantyliners, pads, or tampons,  perfumed bath salts or bubbles, or not cotton panties.  This can rule out an allergy that you are transferring the allergen inside.    I am guessing this is not the problem, again, from the left side pain.  Just want to be thorough.\n\nThe one side pain could mean ovarian cysts if it feels real deep in your body.  Deep thrusting can hurt an ovary if the ovary isn't quite in the right place.  A cyst can last a few months then burst and go away.  Since you've had this for a while they aren't likely to go away on their own.  When they get big they can cause pressure on the bowels or  bladder.  A large cyst should be felt during an internal pelvic exam then they follow up with ultrasound to be sure.  \n\nEndometriosis can reduce fertility.  It can cause pain during sex and painful periods.  You have to have a laproscopy to diagnose this completely.  Being on the pill can regulate hormones and help this.  I have a friend who got pregnant 3 months after having surgery for this.  She had tried for years!\n\nA tipped uterus is a cause of infertility too.  The symptoms are usually pain during sex and during your period.  Sometimes you have trouble using tampons and some urine leakage.  Your doctor should of found this during a pelvic exam.\n\nWell, I tried to tell you the basics of everything i can think of.  If one sounds likely, you might try to research it more on the net.  I may of missed some details since I just know of the general problems with this.\n\nI know that some mental problems with sex can cause painful intercourse, but that wouldn't explain the certain pair of jeans that hurt.  But the mind always surprises me when I see what a little bit of resentment or bottled up anger will do.  \n\nIf I had to guess....endometriosis.\n\nGood luck!

Registered Nurse here;  Hun, first take a deep breath and calm down.  Your going to be okay, this is not that uncommon at all.  Now it's probably a hormonal imbalance, or irritation of cervix.  However, the most important thing you can do is schedule an appointment with a GYN he or she, will take a complete history, do an examination, draw some lab, and will be able to discuss and evaluate with you what's happening with your body.  You do need to see a Physician ASAP, for you don't want to become Anemic.  You will be fine, providing you seek Medical Attention, 99 times out of 100, it is something so minor, so don't worry, just get that appointment scheduled, and keep it.  You will be feeling better in no time, and can leave all this stress and worry behind you.  Thanks for the opportunity to address such a well written question.

Probably not, but there are tests available.  You need to talk to your OB/Gyn about your concerns and get regular check ups.

Do you mean an ultrasound? I have had it done plenty of times it's not bit deal. Now, if they are going to do an intravaginal ultrasound that can be a little uncomfortable but just try to relax and it will be over soon. Good luck. If it's just an x-ray or MRI no big deal either. Unless it is a closed MRI I am closterphobic so it was hard for me.

My smear test results were also unclear so I had to have one done also. Having a colpo exam is not bad. I am going to suggest you take a motrin before you go just incase you get some cramping. They use a duck bill just like in a pap, spread the liquid around your cervix and look at it with a microscope/blacklight to see any abnormal cells. My doctor had a machine that took pictures so that I could see what was going on too. They found some abnormal cells and took a biopsy. This is where you will feel some cramping probably. It feels like a pinch or a cramp. Nothing untolerable. (But the motrin helps!) After that they took a look inside the cervix, this part was the most uncomfortable. Not really painful, but not pleasant. After that it was over and we looked at the pictures and doctor explained to me what everything was. Just remember the motrin, my friend had to have a colpo also and she didn't take motrin and said hers was much more painful than mine sounded.

You need to be examined by a gynecologist. Ask your docotor or local hospital for a recommendation. If you do not have a doctor, there are State Health Clinics that could assist you. The internet and talking with people are great sources to learn from...but if you have a medical problem it is not wise to take advice from these sources. Please get the proper help. Best of health to you.

http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/pap-smear/HQ01177\n\nHere's how the whole thing goes.\nBe sure to relax, and use the bathroom first to empty your bladder or bowels. Having to go to the bathroom during an exam is not a fun experience. Your doctor will begin with:\n\n    * Some questions about your medical history you and your mother will answer together.\n    * A basic physical exam, just like at a "regular" doctors, including an examination of your eyes and ears, heart and lungs, blood pressure, and weight.\n    * Abasic abdominal exam, where (s)he massages your stomach and hip area, and will ask if any spots are tender or painful.\n    * (S)he may also take some blood samples from your arm to check your hormone levels (which in the case of abnormal periods, may be out of whack). You may also get a standard blood and urine screen for STDs. \n\nBefore or after this point, you'll be given a gown to get into. Most likely, before the pelvic exam, the doctor will do a breast exam, during which (s)he will feel your breasts and chest area in massaging movements to check for any lumps or irregularities.\n\nNow, or perhaps sometime before, you may have noticed that the table you're on has stirrups, and the doctor will pull them out and ask you to slide your feet into them, and move your torso down on the table so that your bottom is sitting on the edge.\n\nTo see what your doctor sees, check out our map of your genitals. Your doctor will then first just look at the appearance of your vagina, looking for any lumps or bumps, swelling, funny colors, or unusual discharge. (S)he may put a finger on your vagina to see if your glands put out any pus or mucus when touched.\n\nYou may or may not get a speculum exam. A speculum is a sanitary plastic or metal clamp device which is used to hold open the vagina so that the doctor can examine your vaginal walls and cervix. If you have not had intercourse or have not stretched your own vaginal walls in masturbation or simply by exploring your body yourself, this may hurt a little bit, but the doctor will gage a size of speculum that is right for you so that it is not too uncomfortable. The best way I can describe it to you is that it doesn't usually hurt any more than when the dentist has your mouth spread very wide for cleanings. You may feel some pressure in your bladder (it may feel suddenly like you have to urinate, even if you don't) when the speculum is in, and if you do, let your doctor know, and (s)he will make adjustments so that you are more comfortable. If you receive a Pap Smear while you are there, (s)he will use a long q-tip of sorts to scrape a the cervix for tests. This scraping doesn't hurt, it just feels a little funny, as you may not be used to feeling something on your cervix.\n\nYou can take a look at where your cervix is, and what your doctor is checking out with this illustration of your internal reproductive anatomy.\n\nIf you're curious, you can ask your doctor to get a mirror and show you what your cervix looks like when the speculum is in.\n\nAt this point, the doctor will remove the speculum, and after gloving their hands will insert fingers into your vagina while they put their other hand on your abdomen and torso. (S)he'll press different spots on your tummy and hips and ask if anything feels painful or tender. It can be a little strange, to have someone you don't really know have their hand in your genitals. The best advice I can give you is to understand that's it's really no different from a doctor looking down your throat or in your ears. The only difference is that in our culture, we have put different importance on the genitals, and have different feelings of privacy. Gynecologists aren't perverts who just want to spend all day looking at women's vaginas. They are a specialized practice, just like someone who chooses to do heart surgery, and in general, are people whose personal cares lie in wanting to

When was the last time you had a pelvic exam? You need one to make sure that you don't have a  vaginal hernia or uterine prolapse in that area or something else. If the anatomy is otherwise normal, try looking up kegel exercises on google, they will strengthen the pubogynacoccal muscles that make up the pelvic floor and vaginal musculature. I would check with your doc first though.

You are not pregnant. You need a full exam (external/internal) with your GYNO to find out what is wrong.

Ask your surgeon...or a RN at the facility where the surgery was done. \n\nThey should have given you a list of 'to-do's' and 'not-to-do's' on your discharge papers.  Have you looked at them.  This is standard policy to provide you with this...any way if you lost those papers, phone them Monday and ask them...they'll be happy to tell you.  Each person is different and they know your history...and know exactly what you had done...so their advice would be the best. This is one time you DON'T want advice from friends, or on a board like this.
