Nerve Block for Chronic Pelvic Pain

In this procedure, the provider performs a nerve block on the superior hypogastric plexus, which is part of the thoracolumbar sympathetic chain of the autonomic nervous system. Blocking the superior hypogastric plexus effectively treats chronic pelvic pain that is nonresponsive to medications, which cancer, the menstrual cycle, and other chronic conditions can cause.
