Is it normal to have ovarian pain during menopause?

By Marta Barranquero Gómez B.Sc., M.Sc. (embryologist).

No. Ovarian pain after menopause is uncommon, since the ovaries have lost their function.

However, if a woman were to develop a bacterial infection during menopause, one of the possible symptoms could be inflammation and pain in the ovaries.
