Chronic pelvic pain
Pain lasting more than six months. Often multifactorial, and often dismissed before anyone looks properly.
Chronic pelvic pain frequently has more than one cause at once — endometriosis, adenomyosis, musculoskeletal pain, bladder or bowel involvement, and central sensitisation can all contribute. Treating only one of them is why some patients improve partially and then plateau.
Prototype content. This page proves the shape. The clinical copy needs writing and reviewing by a surgeon before publication, and should be bylined to a named surgeon with a link to their profile — Google weights author credentials heavily for medical content.
How we diagnose it
A careful, unhurried history usually reaches a clinical diagnosis without a diagnostic operation. We map your symptoms against everywhere the disease is known to hide, and we review any imaging or operative reports you already have.
How we treat it
Treatment depends on what we find and what you want from it. Where surgery is right, we excise disease at full depth rather than burning its surface. Where it isn't, we'll say so — and we'd rather tell you that than operate.
Questions patients ask us
- Everyone tells me my tests are normal — what now?
- Why did surgery only help for a while?
- Could this be something other than endometriosis?
