Hallow Dear,
You seem to be right. This appears to be ovulation pain (sometimes it may be associated with little bleeding also). May be there is some amount of bleeding from the ruptured follicle into the abdominal cavity causing such a severe pain. The pain should subside within a day or two. However, if the pain is intolerable, you may take some painkiller for relief. If that also does not relieve you from the pain, please report to a Gynaecologist.
I hope this helps you.
