Osteitis pubis is the condition that causes inflammation of the lower front portion of the pelvis (also called pubic symphysis) where the right and left pubic bones intersect. The pelvis is a group of bones that connects the lower body to the upper body.
Due to added weight and location of the developing infant, the intersection of these major bones may become inflamed during pregnancy. Hormonal changes that cause ligaments to become laxer in preparation for childbirth may also affect the ligaments in this region.
Application of Ice packs and heat packs, consuming NSAIDs, and resting can help relieve groin pain and inflammation caused by osteitis pubis.
