Hello,

Where are the cysts in the ovary? You may be suffering from polycystic ovaries. They may present like left iliac region pain. Other possibilities like left renal calculi or colon pain etc.

Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is. You have to check it out by consulting your gynaecologist. She will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
