Abstract
Gynaecologists are frequently referred women with chronic pelvic pain. These women are often frustrated as they seek to understand their pain and how to manage it. The investigation of women with chronic pelvic pain hinges on taking a full history including social and psychological issues and usually involves laparoscopy and transvaginal ultrasound. Management is often complex and includes taking a multidisciplinary approach as well as using hormonal agents, surgery and psychological interventions.
