What is Pelvic pain?‍
Pelvic pain is a broad term used to describe discomfort or pain felt in the lower abdomen or pelvic region. This pain can be acute (short-term) or chronic (long-lasting) and may range from mild to severe. It can affect both men and women and may be caused by a variety of conditions.

Common Causes of Pelvic Pain

Ovarian Cysts: Fluid-filled sacs on the ovaries that can cause pain or discomfort..

Postnatal Pain: After childbirth, women may experience pelvic pain due to weakened muscles, pelvic floor damage, or vaginal tears.

Pelvic Girdle Pain (PGP): Common during pregnancy, this type of pain affects the pelvic joints and is often caused by changes in body mechanics and hormone levels.

Musculoskeletal Issues: Strain, injury, or tension in the muscles, ligaments, or bones in the pelvic area can cause pain.

Endometriosis: A condition where tissue similar to the lining inside the uterus grows outside the uterus, causing pain, especially during menstruation.

Pregnancy-related Pain: Hormonal changes and the growing baby can cause pelvic pain, especially during the second or third trimester.

Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs) or Bladder Issues: Can lead to pain in the pelvic region due to inflammation or infection.

Prostatitis (in men): Inflammation of the prostate can cause pelvic pain, often associated with urinary symptoms.

Pelvic Organ Prolapse: A condition where one or more of the pelvic organs (bladder, uterus, rectum) drop from their normal position, causing pain or pressure in the pelvis.
