Medical and social aspects in women of reproductive age with chronic pelvic pain
This study analyzed 314 women with chronic pelvic pain, finding higher rates of non-gynecological comorbidities, infertility, miscarriage, vitamin D deficiency, and worse pain, despite insufficient thyroid and vitamin D assessment.

The study analyzed medical records of 314 reproductive-age women with a verified diagnosis of chronic pelvic pain to characterize their medical and social features, including gynecologic pathology, menstrual characteristics, comorbid conditions, prior treatments, pain intensity, habits, reproductive history, and other examinations; it was retrospective. More than one-third of the women who had been treated for conditions causing chronic pelvic pain sought help again, with 58% presenting initially and 42% already having received treatment; comorbid non-gynecologic pathology was more frequent (48.7%) in this group. Common diagnoses included interstitial cystitis (42%) and irritable bowel syndrome (34%), vitamin D deficiency was found in 68% among 162 tested patients, and subjective pain was reported as more pronounced, but routine evaluation of thyroid function and vitamin D status was described as insufficient. Relevance to endometriosis: the paper appears in an endometriosis/adenomyosis corpus as part of a broader literature context on chronic pelvic pain and vitamin D/endometriosis, though it does not explicitly discuss endometriosis or adenomyosis in the provided text.
