"While aimed at gynaecologists, it is useful reading for anyone involved in chronic pelvic pain." (ICS News, 1 January 2012) "This book is written for gynaecologists as part of the Gynaecology in Practice series, but is an
interesting and informative read for anyone involved in this complex topic. There are many potential
causes of chronic pelvic pain and this book provides help in identification and diagnosis. All forms of
treatment are covered, including a chapter on Alternative Treatments." (International Painful Bladder Foundation, 26 July 2011)
A new addition to the Gynecology in Practice series, Chronic Pelvic Pain provides a practical guide to diagnosing and treating chronic pelvic pain in women. Emphasizing diagnosis, management and psychological aspects, the book assists gynecologists to better care for their patients suffering from this condition. As a part of the series, various feature boxes are highlighted throughout. "Tips and Tricks" give suggestions on how to improve outcomes through practical technique or patient questioning. In addition, "Caution" warning boxes supply helpful advice on how to avoid problems and "Science Revisited" boxes offer quick reminders of the basic science principles necessary for understanding the presented concepts.
