Pelvic congestion syndrome

Pelvic congestion syndrome is a unique disease caused by chronic pelvic vein blood outflow, pelvic vein filling, and congestion. Its clinical characteristics are "three pains, two more and one less", namely pelvic falling pain, low back pain, sexual intercourse pain, more menstruation, more leucorrhea, and fewer positive signs in gynecological examination. Clinical findings show that the severity of the disease is positively correlated with the nature of the pain. Open surgery shows pelvic vein thickening, circuitous, varicose, or clumping. It is most common in women aged 25 to 40 years, rarely in premenopause, and never seen in postmenopause.
