Chronic Pelvic Pain Management

Expert chronic pelvic pain management by Dr. Amit Majumdar with advanced diagnosis and personalized treatment for long-term relief.

Service Detail

Chronic pelvic pain is a complex and often distressing condition that can affect a woman’s physical comfort, emotional wellbeing, and daily life. Unlike temporary discomfort, chronic pelvic pain persists for months and may not always have an obvious cause, making it challenging to diagnose and treat without specialist care.

Dr. Amit Majumdar, Consultant Obstetrician and Gynaecologist with super-specialty expertise in urogynecology, provides comprehensive evaluation and management of chronic pelvic pain. His approach focuses on identifying the underlying cause, relieving symptoms, and creating a long-term management plan tailored to each patient.


What is Chronic Pelvic Pain?

Chronic pelvic pain is defined as persistent pain in the lower abdomen or pelvic region lasting for more than six months. It may be constant or intermittent and can vary in intensity.

The condition is often multifactorial, meaning it can involve more than one underlying cause, which is why a thorough and structured evaluation is essential.


Common Symptoms

Patients with chronic pelvic pain may experience:

  • Ongoing or recurring lower abdominal pain
  • Pain during or after menstrual cycles
  • Pain during intercourse
  • Discomfort while sitting or standing for long periods
  • Pain during urination or bowel movements
  • A feeling of pressure or heaviness in the pelvis

These symptoms can significantly affect daily activities, relationships, and quality of life.


Possible Causes of Chronic Pelvic Pain

Chronic pelvic pain can arise from a variety of gynecological and non-gynecological conditions.

Gynecological Causes

  • Endometriosis
  • Fibroids
  • Ovarian cysts
  • Pelvic inflammatory disease
  • Adenomyosis

Urogynecological & Pelvic Floor Causes

  • Pelvic floor muscle dysfunction
  • Bladder-related conditions
  • Nerve-related pain

Other Contributing Factors

  • Previous surgeries or adhesions
  • Hormonal imbalances
  • Stress and emotional factors

Dr. Amit takes a comprehensive approach to identify all contributing factors.


Who Should Seek Treatment?

You should consider evaluation if:

  • Pelvic pain persists for several months
  • Pain interferes with daily activities or sleep
  • Symptoms worsen over time
  • Previous treatments have not provided relief
  • Pain is associated with menstrual cycles or other symptoms

Early and accurate diagnosis can significantly improve outcomes.


How is Chronic Pelvic Pain Diagnosed?

  • Previous medical or surgical history

2. Physical Examination
