Sexual function in women with endometriosis and pelvic floor myofascial pain syndrome.

Objective: To evaluate and compare the sexual function and pelvic floor muscles (PFM) function of women with endometriosis and chronic pelvic pain (CPP) with and without Myofascial Pelvic Pain Syndrome (MPPS).

Methods: Cross-sectional study conducted between January 2018 and December 2020. Women with deep endometriosis underwent assessments for trigger points (TP) and PFM function using the PERFECT scale.

Musculoskeletal evaluation of the lower pelvic complex in women with endometriosis: A case-control study.

Objective: Use clinical pain measurement tools to investigate and compare the prevalence of pelvic loin disoders in women with and without endometriosis.

Study Design: Chronic pelvic pain (CPP) associated with endometriosis has diverse origins, including musculoskeletal factors. Musculoskeletal dysfunction in the pelvic region is theorized to result from sustained muscular contraction, triggered by altered visceral stimuli and adoption of antalgic postures, causing secondary damage to muscles, ligaments, and joints.
