Chronic pelvic pain can feel frustrating, confusing, and at times, dismissed—especially when tests and exams come back ‘normal.’ For many women, the cause may be Pelvic Congestion Syndrome (PCS), a treatable condition caused by enlarged and dysfunctional pelvic veins.
At The Leg Pain Clinic, Dr. Bilal Anwer offers a breakthrough treatment: Ovarian Vein Embolization (OVE). This minimally invasive, image-guided procedure targets the source of the problem—relieving pain, pressure, and bloating without the need for invasive surgery.
What Is Pelvic Congestion Syndrome?
PCS occurs when veins in the pelvis become enlarged and twisted, similar to varicose veins in the legs. This leads to chronic dull or heavy pain, especially after standing or during/after intercourse.
The condition often goes undiagnosed, but with proper imaging and evaluation, it can be confirmed and successfully treated.
How Ovarian Vein Embolization Works
Using real-time fluoroscopic guidance, Dr. Anwer accesses the affected pelvic veins through a small pinhole in the groin or wrist. He then inserts a catheter and delivers tiny coils or particles to block the faulty veins. This reroutes blood flow and relieves pressure—often within days of the procedure.
Why Patients Choose OVE:
– Non-surgical and outpatient
– No hospital stay or stitches
– Short recovery time (typically 2–5 days)
– Avoids unnecessary hysterectomy
– High success rate in reducing chronic pelvic pain
