FIGO–IPPS consensus statement: Addressing the global unmet needs of women with chronic pelvic pain

Abstract

AbstractChronic pelvic pain (CPP), a debilitating condition affecting an estimated 25% of women worldwide, represents a significant yet understudied global health crisis. Existing research is limited and likely fails to capture the true impact of CPP on global health. What is known is that CPP results in a profound health, societal, and economic burden on women. Our inability to fully understand this burden is a critical gap in women's healthcare. To address this urgent need, the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) and the International Pelvic Pain Society (IPPS) have partnered to develop this consensus statement where we examine the key challenges to accessing CPP care and propose a framework for overcoming these barriers. We emphasize that effective global strategies for addressing the negative health consequences of living with CPP must prioritize the lived experiences of patients, empower healthcare professionals with the necessary tools and training, and drive meaningful policy change. This call to action is grounded in a comprehensive vision of women's health and rights to address the full spectrum of conditions women experience throughout their lives. Given its high prevalence, CPP must be a central focus of this expanded vision.
