A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of glue embolization compared to conservative treatment methods for pelvic congestion syndrome (PCS), a condition that causes chronic pelvic pain in women. The study will involve women aged 30 to 50 who experience symptoms of PCS. Participants will receive either the micronized purified flavonoid fraction (Daflon) or undergo glue embolization to occlude incompetent pelvic veins. The outcomes will be assessed to determine which treatment provides better relief from symptoms.
