Symphysis Pubis Dysfunction in a non-pregnant womanFrom: Tara RN (tararn@live.com)Wed May 28 19:42:03 2008
We were talking at work today about a patient that has horrible hip problems. Her hips keep displacing back into her tailbone area and causing severe pain. She goes to P.T. three times a week and they manipulate her hips back into place at every appointment. She also can click her symphysis pubis joint multiple times a day by squeezing her knees together. She is on continuous birth control for endometriosis and has been doing this for over five years. Is it plausible that continued est/progest for this many years could imitate relaxin and "relax" the pelvic structure and ligaments and be causing her hip displacements? Thanks in advance for any opinions!

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
