Pelvic pain occurs in the lower abdomen and can have many possible causes, including constipation, infections, fibroid tumors, ovarian cysts, pelvic inflammatory disease, painful bladder syndrome, endometriosis and other gynecologic conditions. Additional possibilities include a pelvic fracture, intestinal disorder, hernia, kidney infection, kidney stones, STD, nerve disorder or appendicitis. Your primary care physician, urogynecologist, gynecologist or gastroenterologist can employ a variety of diagnostic procedures to determine the cause of your pain. These include a physical exam, medical history, blood and urine tests, pelvic imaging via ultrasound or MRI, pelvic laparoscopy, cystoscopy and colonoscopy.
