I am pregnant and I have groin pain?

Hello, I am 27 weeks pregnant and I have pain in my pubic area and vagina when I walk, climb stairs, etc. What is going on? Is it serious? Is it a pubic symphysis?

Good morning, ma'am,

Pregnancy puts a lot of strain on the structures of the abdomen and this can cause the pain you are experiencing

Taking acetaminophen (Tylenol and other brands) can help relieve the pain and is safe throughout your pregnancy. I would also encourage you to discuss this with your gynecologist at your next appointment, just to be safe.

Sincerely,

Tom Samaha, pharmacist
