Hi, last month I had an HSG test, which was normal. This month, I was given an HCG 5000 injection for ovulation. My left ovary released an egg a few days ago. Now, I have sharp pain in my left ovary once a day for 2 to 3 minutes. Is this normal implantation, an ectopic pregnancy, or something else?

Mild sharp pain on the side of ovulation after HCG injection and follicle rupture is common and can occur due to ovulation or corpus luteum formation. It is too early to confirm implantation or rule out ectopic pregnancy now. Monitor for severe pain, dizziness, or heavy bleeding, which need urgent care. To confirm pregnancy and location, do a Serum Beta hCG test 14 days post ovulation and follow up with your doctor if needed.

I am 23 years old, and my periods are usually irregular. This time, my period is delayed by 2 months and 23 days. For the past 2 days, I have had bloody brown discharge and pain in the lower left side of my stomach. I am trying to conceive, but I am really worried because I do not understand what is happening. I took a pregnancy test at 1 month and 20 days of delay, and it was negative. Please suggest what I should do.
