Experiencing pelvic pain?
Pelvic pain can start suddenly and usually doesn’t last long. However, if it persists and lasts for months, you are experiencing chronic pelvic pain.
Not all pelvic pain is a sign of something bad happening with your reproductive system. But you should contact your doctor at Greater New Haven OB/GYN Group for advice.
In order to answer your main concern, your doctor needs to perform a pelvic exam.
This exam lasts a few minutes during which your ob/gyn examines your v***a, va**na, cervix, ovaries, uterus, re**um and pelvis for any abnormalities.
After examining you externally, internally and by performing a physical exam of the pelvic organs your provider will have enough information to conclude if anything revealed is unusual.
You and your doctor will discuss any next steps, additional tests, follow-up or treatment that you might need.
As our patient, we encourage you to always have questions and discuss them with your doctor during your visit.
Pelvic exams are also commonly performed during pregnancy.
