Pelvic pain, whether it’s short-lived or chronic, can disrupt every aspect of your life. It is also one of the most commonly misdiagnosed problems in gynecology because so many different issues can trigger pelvic pain. Our physicians at Pacific Women’s Center pride themselves on being as thorough as possible when conducting examinations and learning about your medical history. Our personalized approach to your health allows us to diagnose your problems more effectively and create a treatment plan that fits your life.
Most women will experience some type of pelvic pain throughout their lives. Acute pain is often transient and will resolve within a short period of time with or without treatment. Chronic pelvic pain, however, is persistent and oftentimes the result of a more serious issue. The cause of your pain can be due to any number of underlying conditions such as endometriosis, pelvic inflammatory disease, kidney problems or colitis.
