Suggest Treatment For Pulsation In The Lower Abdomen
I am a 40 yo female. I am 5 4 and weigh 113. I am fit, don t smoke, have high bp or abuse substances. I had a supracervical hysterectomy approx 1 year ago. I exercise regularly and eat a balanced diet.(all info for you to consider or rule out) I woke up this morning with a pulsating sensation in my lower left abdomen approximately 2 to the left of my groin area. I do not have any bulging. I am not in pain. The pulsating is merely irritating. The pulsating is intermittant and appears to pulse along with my heart. I can t feel it if I apply mild pressure to the area.

Hi
Thanks for posting on HCM
The pulsation you describe may not be pathologic.The groin region is a region where large arteries pass like the external and internal iliac arteries.Blood pressure in these great vessels is always very high and may be perceived with mild palpation on the surface.If you feel it may be pathologic, you see the Doctor for examination and reassurance.
Hope this will help
Best regards
