What are the problems that only women get that can cause left lower quadrant pain?
Pain in the lower left abdomen has different possible causes than pain in the lower right. Abdominal pain in the left is commonly caused by constipation or gas that causes brief pain in the digestive tract. Sharp pains may be due to kidney stones or breakthrough of the weak parts of the abdominal wall, a.k.a. hernia. In women, menstruation or ovarian cysts can also cause pain in the lower left.
The lower left quadrant of the abdomen contains the transverse, descending, and sigmoid sections of the colon; part of the small intestine; the ureter of the left kidney; and the iliac fossa (part of the hip bone and pelvis). The iliac fossa is a gateway to the reproductive organs in both men and women.
