Frequently Asked Questions
About Pelvic Pain
Chronic pelvic pain is pain in the lower abdomen or pelvis that lasts 6 months or longer and is not related solely to menstruation, intercourse, or pregnancy. It can be constant or intermittent and ranges from mild to debilitating.
See a provider promptly if you experience severe sudden pelvic pain, pain with fever or vomiting, or pain that significantly disrupts your daily activities. For ongoing or recurrent pelvic pain, schedule a gynecologic evaluation even if the pain seems manageable.
Evaluation may include pelvic exam, pelvic ultrasound, STI testing, urinalysis, and in some cases laparoscopy for definitive diagnosis of conditions like endometriosis. Your provider will build a diagnostic plan based on your specific symptoms and history.
Many causes of pelvic pain are treated effectively with medication, hormonal therapy, physical therapy, or lifestyle changes. Surgery is considered when conservative measures are insufficient or when a surgical condition (such as endometriosis or fibroids) is identified.
