1 doctor agreed: Mittelschmerz: ovulation pain (mittelschmerz) is cause by first the actual rupture of the cyst causing a sharp sudden pain with some residual discomfort afterwards. But many ovulated cysts will also bleed slightly and the blood irritates the perineum causing often a couple days of crampy to sharp pain.
In brief: A few days. Pain related directly to ovulation, sometimes called mittelschmerz, ' is usually only a few days. Obviously there is personal variability, but one or two days is very common. There can be pain indirectly related to ovulation or not related at all that might make pain go on longer. I suggest if pain lasts longer than about 4 days checking with a doctor may be helpful.
