Frozen Pelvis

What is a Frozen Pelvis?

As the name suggests, a frozen pelvis is a condition where the parts of the pelvis get tightly stuck together. There can be various reasons behind it, like endometriosis and others. Doctors may run several tests, MRI, an endovaginal sonogram, and physical examinations, to conduct a detailed diagnosis. Unfortunately, there is no permanent cure for frozen pelvis, but management can control the pain and discomfort. Women are commonly affected by frozen pelvis,  but men may also be affected. At Guru Infertility Center, we strive to provide long-term relief to our patients so they can get back to their usual routine!
