Women may be at increased risk for sacroiliac joint problems because of their broader pelvises, the greater curve of their necks, and shorter limb lengths. In addition, pregnancy often leads to stretching of the pelvis, specifically in the sacroiliac ligaments. Injury from accidents is another predisposing factor for sacroiliac joint pain.
