This could be menstrual pain (dysmenorrhea) or appendicitis. But without fever, nausea, vomiting or pain radiating down your right lower limb, it will be better to observe you on Ibuprofen until your menstrual period is over. Then you will be re-valuated for appendicitis. But the pain should get worse in the next couple of days, you must proceed to the ER or call 911.
Appendicitis is somewhat unlikely and is usually accompanied by low-grade fever and loss of appetite. Pain from the ovary Can occur at midcycle and is called mittelschmerz and is not pathological.there's always a concern for sexually transmitted disease which could lead to pelvic inflammatory disease though the pain is often worse ,if one has a chlamydial infection sometimes you don't even feel the pain and so with or without symptoms you should be getting your urine tested for gonorrhea and chlamydia until you're 26 years old even if you don't have symptoms. The reduction in pain with urination with slow return doesn't sound so much like a urinary track infection without the frequency of urination and the urgency. There does remain slight possibility of some underlying inflammatory process which is indicated by the pain and the relief with urination and then return when The bladder refills. Hopefully it's not getting any worse and getting better in which case you might not figure out what it actually was but you certainly should get tested and examined anyway
Having been 5 days, it is unlikely to be your appendix. Pelvic pain can have many causes. However, I would be most concerned about a bladder infection, or, if you are sexually active, pelvic inflammatory disease or pregnancy. I would recommend you see your doctor. While there, be sure and discuss birth control if you are sexually active.
Best of luck!

Possibly. Doubt. Possibly.
Appendicitis is usually pain around belly button and right lower quadrant with fever and no appetite. Go to a Pcp or your GYN if you have one....someone who still does pelvic exams. Good luck...think about a pregnancy pee on a stick before going to a med provider
