26 yr old wife has mild lower right abdomen pain for 3+ mo. It's not UTI or appendix. What else could it be?
Answer:
Liver and Gallbladder are mostly in the Right Upper Quadrants not Right Lower, you should not rule out appendicits. Definitely, get her off the birth control and it can probably be kidney stones, ovarian cyst or maybe even cancer. You have to consider all the possibilities that can occur from right lower abdomen pain.
have her schedule another appointment with the doctor for further testing. this cannot be diagnosed online.
anxiety or stress. It seems to me she should relax more, if the pain sensation occur in the evenings.
check the liver
it could be her gallbladder. get the doctor to look at it.
did doc check her gall bladder? my sister had to haver hers out about that age
I could be many things, if your regular doctor is not sure go see another doctor. The best thing for her is to see another doctor ASAP.
It could be either of the two that you mentioned. Most likely a cyst and if it is there isn't a lot that they can do. If it is endrometriosis they can do surgery to remove some of it depending on where it is and how much. If she doesn't have children yet or does and wants more be very very careful because anytime the go in and mess with female organs fertility rate goes down. Good luck
You should seriously get it checked out pronto. It could also be hernia. (I don't think I spelled it correctly.)
It could be one of the two things you mentioned or many other things. Here is a symtom checker that you can copy and paste. You are probably going to just have to wait for the doc though.

If there is a heavier than normal blood flow, go to your ob-gyn and have a blood pregnancy test ran. I had an ectopic pregnancy with a lot of pain in my right side. Drs. can do excellent work nowdays if it is anything like a tubal pregnancy. Say prayers and remember to go to that appointment.
I had this same problem and doctors couldn't figure it out for almost 4 years. I got ultrasounds, MRI, but nothing. I had 2 ER trips and the last one FINALLY told me that the pain were cysts that kept bursting, and the fluid inside the cyst got trapped in my hip bone. The hip bone creates almost like a sling of some sort, and holds the fluid. The irritation from the fluid on the bone causes discomfort/pain. If she is on birth control, she might want to check into Yasmin BC, because the hormone levels in that birth control help prevent the cysts. Hormone level fluctuations were the culprit in my case. I hope your wife feels better
