A member asked:
Iv had pain in left of my tummy low down for a while. scan showed prominant veins in left ovary can this cause the pain?

Unlikely Unless ...: The veins have clots within them or flow/drainage blocked in some way. More likely the prominent veins reflect a combination of increased blood flow +/- increased vein pressure (they enlarge) & this is related to something else which may relate to the pain, vs something else going on, like constipation, endometriosis, small bowel problems, etc. Complex; study images & anatomy, yet all only clues.

Rarely: Pelvic congestion syndrome is a debatable entity which can produce the symptoms you are experiencing and have the imaging appearance you relate. It is controversial as a medical entity/problem. It is also thought to be rare.
