Hello, I would be happy to help you with your question.
The pain in the right lower side could be related to ovulation as it is about 2 weeks since the start of your period. Also, some women experience a small amount of spotting with ovulation related to a brief, abrupt drop in estrogen levels. You should check a pregnancy test also. I do not believe that this is related to your shingles. If you are still confused, check with your doctor.
I hope that this helps and good luck!
