What Causes Intense Pain In Pubic Area When Suffering From Peripheral Neuropathy?

Hi, I m a 68 yrs. old female. 1st concern: I have intense pain on and off in the pubic area, sometimes somewhat relieved when I go to the Toilet. 2nd concern: I have much facial hair on my chin area and above top lip (mustache). Lost much hair (bald spots) on my scalp and hair lost in pubic region. I suffer from peripheral neuropathy due to five Lumbar and neck surgeries. Also have Hydrocephalus...I do have a Shunt. I appreciate your advise, thank you! Thea (pronounced Taya)
