Hi
Thanks for writing your query
You need to get physical examination along with blood test for Increase level of cortisone hormone. The broad shape of pelvis is most likely due to fat deposition; it needs x ray examination to confirm.
But as far as your wish of having pelvis redesigned by surgery, it is not possible.
Take care and wish you good health.
