I have pain in the lower back area, and left side "front area" like
around my ovaries and female organs. None of the doctors Ive seen can
explain it. An ultrasound showed " ok" . I was in a car wreck in 93
and had seatbelt injuries. I had a laproscope surgery to see what was
wrong and besides things being shifted around they said it was ok. The
pain really just started in May or June when I noticed other symptoms of
PCOS.
