 [No title]
Mittelschmerz is German for "middle" and "pain." It is also known as ovulation pain; or 'midycle pain'.
Mittelschmerz is due either to swelling and stretching of the surface of the ovary in the area of the follicle, leakage of the follicular fluid or blood, or it comes from enzymes that dissolve the outer wall of the ovary surrounding the follicle to let the egg escape.
Mittelschmerz is too nonspecific to be a reliable enough indicator of ovulation which can better be assessed with the bbt curve, ultrasound, OPKs, or an elevated postovulatory blood progesterone level.
