Health Organization for Pudendal Education

Hi
On perusing the various debates on the causes of p.n something keeps popping up that I choose to push to the back of my mind(by choice) among the many possible causes of this problem in the company of cycling weight lifting ect is deep buttock injections ! Well into my forties had an injection called epo provena! It was a man made form of the hormone progesterone . It is given out freely as birthcontrol to many women, I had it for severe endometriosis ! Strangely I had the last before a holiday I had to Malaysia! This was the holiday that towards the end of I started with the first symptoms of pn! What an awfull thought that something I elected to do could give me such a terrible legacy? Any comments would be apreisiated

Sometimes deep buttock injections can cause muscle spasms which can mimic PNE. I know one time I had a resident at one of the pain clinics do my trigger point in my piriformis and it caused me misery for weeks because he just irritated something. Caused a big increase in my pudendal symptoms but once the muscle settled back down to its normal baseline spasm my symptoms went back to baseline. You might want to find a good pelvic floor PT for evaluation and see what they think.

Thanks nyt and Helen! First of all Helen thanks for the link you gave me! I am sure you will totally understand me when hit by another unpleasant and mind blowing condition we have to deside(I'm not even going there!!) I am sure we three will agree that although we are on a mission to make sense of our pain there is annoyingly (like a shoe) never going to be a fit all list of symptoms! Many thanks for your imput! I have joined my partner I n our local pub(as we in England call it) and after a days work(stood up) I desired to have a couple off glasses of fizz! After that I decided that it was ok to sit down( couldn't feel a thing???) oh the folly of it!! But as as I say( and no pun intended) after a few glasses of bubbly"you can't be bitter"
With thanks
Anne

Could the injections have caused scar tissue to form, Anne?
