Pelvic Congestion Syndrome

What is Pelvic Congestion Syndrome?

Pelvic Congestion Syndrome (PCS) is a condition caused by Varicose Veins in the Pelvis. The Varicose Veins are caused by incompetent valves in the Veins of the Pelvis. This causes blood to fall back into the Pelvis rather than being taken away from the Pelvis by the Iliac Vein which causes congestion.

Symptoms of Pelvic Congestion Syndrome

The symptoms of Pelvic Congestion Syndrome (PCS) are caused by these Varicose Veins pushing onto the other organs in the Pelvis:
  • Pressure of the Varicose Veins onto the Pelvis causes Aching more so during a woman's period
  • Pressure on the Rectum causes Bowel symptoms such as Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
  • Pressure on the Bladder causes Irritable Bladder which can cause Stress Incontinence
  • Pressure on the Vagina can cause Dyspareunia (Discomfort on Sexual Intercourse)
How is Pelvic Congestion Syndrome (PCS) diagnosed?

If you suffer with any of the symptoms above and have any visible Varicose Veins (bulges) around the Vulva, Groin or Vagina then you need to see a Medical Professional and have a Venous Duplex Ultrasound Scan.
