Patient discussions
Psychological and social issues may commonly occur in association with chronic pelvic pain and should be enquired about.[11] Access to additional support such as counselling may help some women when trying to cope with debilitating symptoms. Women should be advised to try to maintain a positive outlook and return to normal activities as symptoms allow. If being evaluated for subfertility, they should be advised to seek counselling and/or treatment with a reproductive endocrinologist or infertility specialist for a full fertility evaluation, as infertility is often multifactorial.
