this depends on age, possibility of pregnancy? it could be a lot of things. recommend a sonogram and exam

You did not give us enough information to be able to - at least - narrow down the possibilities. So my best suggestion is for you to see a qualified gynecologist as soon as you can to be able to avoid potentially severe gyn. issues.

probably a gun exam is in order as a first step

I'm not a doctor but, when was your last pap? I had these same symptoms, don't mean to scare you, but I was diagnosed with later stage cervical cancer. Also, you could possibly be suffering from sciatica. Before and during my period is when I hurt the worst due to my sciatica. I'd definitely talk to your doctor. Maybe try acupuncture or massage and stretching techniques help too :)

It is common to have referred pain either from internal organs to the spine or from the spine to the internal organs (ovaries, kidneys, urinary bladder, etc.). Therefore it's hard to say whethe you should start with an internist MD, DO, or FM doctor (http://orangeparkchiropractor.com/functional-medicine/); or whether you should start with a Chiropractor, but you definately should see BOTH.

over the past 17 years I commonly hear people say they are in excellent health, which I find to mean that they are symptom free and have an acceptable range of motion and strength, however until you have a full workup to include blood, urine, saliva, hair, and postural xrays; you really don't know the true level of your health (remember cancer can exist in a person for 14 years before any symptoms arise. this is an example, meaning I am NOT diagnosing you with cancer)
