Evaluation and Medical Management of Chronic Pelvic Pain

Abstract

AbstractChronic pelvic pain (CPP) is a challenging condition affecting an estimated 15% of females in the United States. Multiorgan system dysfunction results in the complex clinical pain presentation. Similar to other chronic pain syndromes, CPP is influenced by biopsychosocial factors and requires a multimodal approach for optimal pain management. This review summarizes the clinical evaluation and medical management of CPP with a comprehensive approach.
