Objectives: To determine the frequency and associated risk factors of chronicpelvic pain (CPP) in educated women under 30 years of age. Study Design: A cross sectionalstudy. Setting: North Naziabad and Gulshan e Iqbal towns of Karachi. Period: January to July2017. Method: Data was collected through convenient sampling. Informed verbal consentwas taken before data collection. A questioner was used to collect demographic and obstetricdata. Screening of Anxiety and depression was done using standard tool Hospital basedanxiety and depression scale (HADS).Result were analyzed on SPSS. Result: The mean ageof women were 25 years, SD = 4.31. The frequency of chronic pelvic pain was 29% (116).Gynecological cause was found in 68.9% (80). Irritable bowel syndrome was seen in 9% (36)women. Significant association of CPP was noted with Dysmenorrhoea (p-value=000,OR=.207), Dyspareunia (p-value = .000, OR = .166), Heavy menstrual flow (p-value = .033, OR= .333), married (p-value = .000, OR = .414), Vaginal discharge (p-value = .000, OR = .260),Anxiety (p-value = .000, OR = .300), depression (p-value = .002, OR = .452), Normal mentalstatus (p-value = .000, OR = 2.488), Irritable bowel syndrome (p-value = .000, OR = .169)and PMS (p-value = .000, OR = .438). Conclusion: Frequency of chronic pelvic pain is high inyoung educated women. Gynecological causes, irritable bowel syndrome and psychologicaldisorder are significantly associated with CPP.

Abstract Objective To determine the average body composition (percentage of body fat), the anthropometric markers, and the intensity of clinical pain in women with a clinical diagnosis of chronic pelvic pain (CPP) secondary to endometriosis. Methods A case-control study performed with 91 women, 46 of whom with CPP secondary to endometriosis and 45 of whom with CPP secondary to other causes. They underwent an evaluation of the anthropometric parameters by means of the body mass index (BMI), the perimeters (waist, abdomen, hip), and the percentage of body fat (%BF), which were assessed on a body composition monitor by bioimpedance; the intensity of the clinical pain was evaluated using the visual analog scale (VAS), and the symptoms of anxiety and depression, using the hospital's anxiety and depression scale (HAD). Results The groups did not differ in terms of mean age, BMI, %BF or regarding the available waist-to-hip ratio (WHR). The mean intensity of the clinical pain by the VAS was of 7.2 ± 2.06 in the group with CPP secondary to endometriosis, and of 5.93 ± 2.64 in the group with CPP secondary to other causes (p = 0.03), revealing significant differences between the groups. Conclusion We concluded that, despite the difference in the pain score assessed between the two groups, there was no difference regarding body composition and anthropometry.

Background: Numerous therapies have been developed for the treatment of chronic pelvic pain (CPP). Oxygen-ozone therapy is a new method for the treatment of CPP. Objectives: This article evaluated the feasibility of ultrasound-guided peritoneal perfusion with ozone in patients with CPP. Study Design: This is a bicenter retrospective study. Setting: The study was conducted at 2 pain centers of a university hospital. Methods: The medical records of patients with CPP (n = 60) from March 2016 until October 2018 were collected and reviewed. Group A contained 19 patients who were treated with a 1500 mcg dose of ozonated water (10 mcg/mL concentration and 150 mL volume), group B contained 23 patients using the same dose of ozonated water but a 15 mcg/mL concentration and 100 mL volume. Group C included 18 patients using a similar ozone dose but delivered in an oxygen-ozone mixture (15 mcg/mL concentration and 100 mL volume oxygen-ozone mixture). Visual Analog Scale (VAS) scores for pain of the 3 groups were compared at pretreatment, posttreatment, 1, 3, and 6 months posttreatment. The injection pain was evaluated using a 4-point verbal rating scale. Quality of life (QoL), anxiety, and depression were assessed at pretreatment and at 6 months posttreatment. Results: The VAS scores of the 3 groups decreased over time following treatment. Group A showed much higher pain scores compared with groups B and C at 1, 3, and 6 months posttreatment. However, the injection pain for groups B and C was higher than group A, but there was no difference seen between group B and C. At 6 months posttreatment, the QoL for all patients improved compared with pretreatment, whereas the anxiety and depression did not demonstrate differences. Limitations: The main limitations of this study are the retrospective study design, limited case number, and short follow-up period. Conclusions: Ultrasound-guided peritoneal perfusion with ozone is a feasible therapy for patients with CPP. Key words: Chronic pelvic pain, ozone, peritoneal perfusion
