<s>[INST] Hello,I am experiencing lower abdominal pains, or what I believe to be lower abdominal pain. It is about an inch below my hips almost exactly in the middle but slightly to the left. I should not begin my period for another 10-16 days. My period has been regular for the last year without the aid of birth control. It is not particularly heavy, lasting about 4 days including spotting. I have had an overactive bladder for a while, but I am not so sure that this is related or even a problem. What can this be? I do not currently have health insurance. [/INST] Hi.Thanks for your query and an elucidate history.This can be a subclinical form of gastroenteritis as per the site of pain you explained. A course of an antibiotic may help. This does not look to be related to the periods . </s>
