Chronic female pelvic pain refers to persistent pain in the lower abdomen or pelvis lasting for six months or more. It can be caused by various conditions such as endometriosis, pelvic inflammatory disease, fibroids, or pelvic floor dysfunction.

We can help treat chronic pelvic pain through minimally invasive procedures, such as nerve blocks, embolization, or ablation techniques. These procedures target the pain sources, reduce inflammation, and block pain signals, offering relief without the need for major surgery. They typically involve small incisions, shorter recovery times, and less risk compared to traditional treatments.

Uterine fibroid disease involves the growth of non-cancerous tumors (fibroids) in or around the uterus, which can cause symptoms like heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pain, and frequent urination.

We can help treat fibroids through a procedure called Uterine Artery Embolization (UAE). This minimally invasive technique blocks the blood vessels supplying the fibroids, causing them to shrink and symptoms to improve. The procedure is performed through a small incision in the groin, with a quick recovery time and less risk compared to traditional surgery like hysterectomy.

Pelvic Congestion Syndrome (PCS) or Pelvic Venous Insufficiency (PVI) is a condition where enlarged veins in the pelvis cause chronic pelvic pain, often worsened by standing or intercourse. At our center, we can treat PCS using minimally invasive techniques like pelvic vein embolization, which blocks the problematic veins, reducing pain and improving blood flow. This procedure offers a safe, effective alternative to surgery, helping patients regain a pain-free lifestyle.
