Ovulation pain and Endo?

Gl

Hey y’all, not looking for medical advice, looking for personal experiences!! I was diagnosed with endometriosis when I was 16, I’m 27 now and outside of some losses which I think were caused by that and/or my autoimmune issues, I have 2 beautiful babies!

One thing I’m curious about though- I never had pain while ovulating until after the birth of my second baby who is now 19 months old. Sometimes it’s worse than period cramps and very uncomfortable. I had both my kiddos without any pain meds so the cramping is somewhat reminiscent on a milder scale to labor cramping. It’s every single month and I know the day I ovulate because of how bad the pain is lol.

*I have reached out to my midwife/holistic doc about it but she’s on vacation currently and it isn’t an emergency so* just curious if anyone else has found a link between the two, or if y’all experience pretty bad pain while fertile!
