Hi there! I'm posting this here after someone suggested I ask this board.... I'm having some pressure in my left lower quadrant of my abdomen. It's super low, like where I think my left ovary should be, but I'm really not sure. I don't notice it all of the time. Mostly when I'm laying in bed. I have absolutely no pain. Is this concerning? Thank you everyone!

probably just bruising from the surgery or some gas left over but it is safest to call the surgeon and check it out

Yes, I've been going regularly some the day after the surgery

Weird pressure can be normal after any abdominal surgery.  I'd contact the surgeon to be sure. 

I follow a ketogenic diet post-op. I also have a diagnosis of binge eating disorder. Feel free to ask me about either!
