Can ovulation cause pain in back?

Yes, hormonal shifts and the release of the egg can radiate pain to your lower back. It is quite common. If it's interfering with your daily schedule, just go see a gynecologist instead of suffering.

I personally get a mild ache in my lower back and pelvis almost every month around my ovulation window. It usually goes away in a day or two without needing any painkillers, so I don't worry about it much.

I used to think my severe back pain was just ovulation, but it turned out to be an ovarian cyst pressing on a nerve. Please do not ignore persistent back pain. It is safer to get a quick pelvic ultrasound done.

Actually, my lower back hurts like crazy during ovulation yaar. It feels like a dull ache right in the center of the lower back. I usually take a warm shower and it helps, but track your cycle to be sure.

Beta, the pelvic area gets heavy during this time, which can pull on your lower back. Drinking warm milk with a little ginger or turmeric can help soothe the body. Make sure you don't lift heavy things for a few days.
