Abstract

Approaches to patients with pelvic pain, vulvar disease, disorders of menstruation, premenstrual syndrome, and breast diseases are addressed. In the great majority of cases, it is appropriate for the primary care physician to initiate evaluation and management of these problems. It is hoped that the brief introductions contained here suggest a diagnostic approach to each disorder and guide referral to consultants as needed.
