Pelvic Congestion

Pelvic congestion syndrome resembles what occurs with varicose veins of the lower limbs. In both cases, in fact, the venous valves, responsible for ensuring the return of blood to the heart by avoiding reflux linked to gravity, do not function correctly, which leads to venous stasis, an increase in the pressure exerted against the venous walls and, consequently, distention of the vessels. In the pelvis, varicose veins affect the uterus, ovaries and vulva. Up to 15% of women, between 20 and 50 years old in general, can be affected without feeling the symptoms.

It can be induced by:

  • general static disorders which have an impact on the balance of the pelvis and the joints of the lower limbs,
  • risk factors for venous pathology: heredity, excess weight, hormonal disturbance...
  • an obstacle in the small pelvis (fibroma, tumor, ovarian cyst)

Consequences : induction or aggravation of pathologies such as: varicose veins of the lower limbs, pelvic, uterine, ovarian, vulvar varicose veins, abdominal cellulitis, cystitis, salpingitis, frequency of urination, urinary incontinence, pelvic pain during sexual intercourse, menstrual pain or pre-menstrual periods, endometriosis.

In men, pelvic congestion can promote pathologies such as hemorrhoids, prostate adenoma, genitourinary infection...
