Are you experiencing persistent pain in your lower abdomen or pelvic region? Chronic pelvic pain (CPP) is a common yet complex condition that affects many women, impacting their daily life and overall well-being. At Gynae Anjana Clinic, we specialize in diagnosing the underlying causes of chronic pelvic pain and providing personalized treatment plans to help you regain a pain-free life.
What is Chronic Pelvic Pain?
Chronic pelvic pain is defined as pain in the lower abdomen or pelvic region lasting for more than six months. It can be constant or intermittent, dull or sharp, and may worsen with certain activities such as menstruation, sexual intercourse, or urination.
CPP is not a disease itself, but a symptom of an underlying condition that needs medical evaluation and treatment.
Common Symptoms of Chronic Pelvic Pain
✔️ Persistent dull or sharp pain in the pelvic area
✔️ Pain during intercourse (dyspareunia)
✔️ Menstrual cramps that do not improve with usual treatment
✔️ Pain while urinating or during bowel movements
✔️ Lower back pain and discomfort
✔️ Pressure or heaviness in the pelvic area
