Is pelvic congestion syndrome difficult to treat?

1. Treatment of patients with mild symptoms

Most cases do not require medication. Health guidance can be given according to the relevant causes of the disease so that patients can have a full understanding of the formation and prevention and treatment of the disease. When resting, change the habitual supine position to the lateral prone position, correct constipation, control sexual intercourse, and do appropriate physical exercises to increase pelvic muscle tension and improve pelvic blood circulation. The effect is generally good.

2. Treatment of severe patients

Insist on doing the knee-chest position for more than 10 minutes, then rest in the side-lying position, and observe the effect. Generally, severe pelvic pain and other symptoms can be significantly reduced or alleviated. For those with severe breast tumors and menorrhagia, taking a small amount of methyltestosterone before the symptoms appear can also be effective. If the side-prone position therapy is effective but cannot be consolidated, surgical treatment can be considered, using the following methods as appropriate:

(1) Round ligament suspension surgery is a procedure that uses surgery to maintain the retroverted uterus in an anteverted position. It can often reduce the size of the enlarged uterine body and cervix, greatly alleviate or almost eliminate symptoms such as pelvic pain, and has a good effect.

(2) Broad ligament tear repair is suitable for young patients with severe pelvic congestion who have broad ligament tears and no longer need to have children.

(3) Abdominal hysterectomy and salpingectomy

Abdominal surgery has more advantages than vaginal surgery. It can remove as much varicose pelvic veins, especially the uterine veins and ovarian veins as possible, and is beneficial for repairing damage to the broad ligament and sacral ligament, so that the vaginal stump can be better fixed.
