Abdominal & Pelvic Pain

Abdominal and pelvic pain can be complex. We help you find relief.

IBS, endometriosis, bladder pain, and pelvic floor dysfunction are all real, diagnosable conditions that are often dismissed or misunderstood. They can also overlap significantly, which is part of why they’re grouped together here.

Override specializes in chronic pain. Our virtual care team looks at the physical, neurological, and emotional factors that can influence ongoing abdominal and pelvic pain, then builds a personalized care plan around your needs, goals, and life.

When Abdominal or Pelvic Pain Becomes More Than a Digestive or Reproductive Problem

When abdominal or pelvic pain lasts for months, it can start affecting much more than the physical symptoms themselves.

Pain can change how you plan your day around bathroom access or flares. How you feel about intimacy. How isolating it can feel to manage conditions that are hard to talk about and often dismissed as normal.

That’s why Override doesn’t treat abdominal and pelvic pain as only a digestive or reproductive symptom.

We look at the whole pain experience and build a personalized plan around your symptoms, history, goals, and the factors that may be contributing to your pain.

A Whole-Person Approach to Abdominal & Pelvic Pain

You may have already worked with a gastroenterologist, OB/GYN, or urologist. Tried medication, diet changes, or hormonal treatment. Maybe something helped for a while. Maybe nothing did.

Override isn’t about asking one more treatment to solve every part of a complex pain experience.

It’s about bringing the right care together.

Depending on your needs, your personalized care plan may include:

Care Medicine

Pain Medicine

Pain specialists trained in pain neuroscience and non-opioid chronic pain management who coordinate with your gastroenterologist, OB/GYN, or urologist.

Care Pt

Physical Therapy

Movement specialists trained in chronic pain, including pelvic floor-focused approaches, who address abdominal and pelvic muscle tension.

Care Psychology

Pain Psychology

Therapists who specialize in chronic pain and help address the stress and anxiety closely tied to the gut-brain and pelvic pain connection.

Care Coaching

Coaching & Peer Support

Certified pain coaches help you track triggers and flare patterns, and build sustainable habits.

Your care is personalized to you. You may not need every service. The difference is that your providers can work together as one team, with one shared understanding of your pain and your goals, and your specialist stays central to diagnosis and medical or surgical decisions.

Real Results

My Override provider has been helping me to understand the progress I’ve made, emotionally, in coping with pain, which was lagging far behind my cognitive understanding of it. My life is much happier now.

Frequently Asked Questions

These conditions often overlap or get confused with each other, IBS, endometriosis, IC, and pelvic floor dysfunction can all cause abdominal or pelvic pain with some shared symptoms. A proper evaluation, often alongside your gastroenterologist, OB/GYN, or urologist, can help clarify what’s driving your specific symptoms.

Yes. It’s common for IBS, interstitial cystitis, and pelvic floor dysfunction to co-occur, since they all involve the same general pelvic and abdominal region.

Many people feel this way, and it’s a common reason symptoms go unaddressed for a long time. Your care team is there to help, not to judge.
