Gynaecological Pain

If you are experiencing dull, burning, sharp or cramping pain associated with menstruation or sexual intercourse you may be suffering from gynaecological pain.

Whether your pain is acute or chronic it is important to have it diagnosed and appropriately treated. Gynaecological pain can be caused by a variety of underlying conditions including endometriosis, fibroids, adhesions and infective causes. It can be difficult to pinpoint the exact cause of the pain.
