Abstract

Gynecologic and urologic etiologies are the sources of pelvic pain for many individuals. This article aims to provide a comprehensive review of the various genitourinary sources of pelvic pain. It is important to recognize that although these disorders predominantly affect women, there are various conditions that affect both men and women, and these should be considered in the differential diagnosis of patients presenting with pelvic pain. Providers who encounter patients with pelvic pain should attempt to localize these symptoms and obtain a comprehensive history from the patient to help direct diagnostic evaluation.
