The most common causes of groin pain in women are bursitis, hernias and muscle strains. But don't let these words scare you; it doesn't have to be a long-term problem! Treating the injury right away is key so that your body can heal before trying to compensate for what's been done wrong.
A Groin Injury, or groin muscles strain as it is commonly called, can be a very painful injury. This often happens when one of the muscles situated at the top of your thigh (or lower abdomen) has been injured and needs time to heal. A sports hernia often happens when the lower abdomen muscles has weakened resulting in chronic pain.
Urinary tract infections(UTIs) are a common condition that can cause moderate to severe pain in the groin area. Other symptoms of a UTI can include:

If you think you may have a UTI, or feel chronic Pelvic Pain it is important to see a doctor so that you can receive treatment. Untreated UTIs can lead to serious health complications.
