"Doctors in the field of gynecology are trained to focus on organs, not muscles. 'If someone has unexplained pain in the shoulder, of course we would look at the muscles,' says Dr. Elkadry. But when it comes to pelvic pain, doctors tend to ignore the muscles and look for other causes, such as a problem with the bladder, uterus, or vulva."
