Severe Bloating, Sporadic Pain In Abdomen. Continuous Bleeding. Indentation On Left Side Stomach. What Is It?

I am a 36 yr old, healthy female. I have been experiencing severe bloating , and excruciating pain in my lower abdomen which comes sporadically. I was at my gp last week who took blood tests and referred me to a gynaecologist . I presumed it was in relation to a coil I had fitted 2 years ago as I am now bleeding for 2-3 weeks per month. I have just noticed an indentation in the lower left hand side of my stomach , no pain. Can you give me any indication as to what this could be?

Hi welcome to Health care magic forum.
Thanks for calling H.C.M.F.
As you describe it appears to be some thing concerned with the gynic problem, as you said it could be due to I.U.D of contraception, or an infection.
It also can be due to renal colic related to kidney stones,or urinary tract infection, or anaemia. First thing you have to do is get the I.U.D.removed.
I advise you to consult a gynacologist for diagnosis and treatment. You may have to get the M.R.I. besides other routine tests for confermation.
Wishing for a quick recovery.
Best regards.

Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic

See your doctor...
Get a gynaecological examination - to exclude PID (Pelvic Inflammatory Disease)
Get the coil out
Oral contraceptive pill for a month or two will regularise...

Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
