Why live with pain if you don’t have to? If you’re experiencing debilitating, chronic pain, the Center for Complex Abdominal and Pelvic Pain Syndrome (CAPPS) at Celebration Health may be able to help you reduce it or even eliminate it altogether.
Pelvic Pain and Infertility
Adhesions account for approximately 25% of all cases of infertility. The area may have developed adhesions because of inflammation, trauma, surgery, infections, endometriosis or even appendicitis. As the body attempts to heal itself, this natural scarring occurs, often causing blockages, distortions in the pelvic anatomy or even causing two organs to grow scar tissue between one another, damaging the tubes, ovaries or uterus. The patient may not even notice that adhesions have developed initially. For instance, adhesions can form as your body attempts to get rid of an infection you don’t even know you have.
If the scarring is minimal, it may not be causing the infertility, but it is a factor that needs to be ruled out. Fortunately, the Center for Complex Abdominal and Pelvic Pain Syndrome (CAPPS) at Celebration Health has the experience and expertise to properly diagnose these infertility issues and take the appropriate measures necessary to restore fertility.
Most often, minimally invasive surgery is the preferred course of action. Using MIS techniques, surgeons as the Center for Complex Abdominal and Pelvic Pain Syndrome (CAPPS) will remove the adhesions that have formed in the reproductive region. To discourage new adhesions from forming, surgeons will use barriers in the pelvis to keep the structures from rejoining.
