Women frequently have Chronic Pelvic Pain (CPP), which has general practise consultation rates comparable to those for migraine and asthma. Population-based studies from the US and the UK, along with information from hospital settings in the UK, show that CPP has a significant impact on health-related quality of life. In this review, we will focus on the available Randomised Controlled Trials (RCTs) to analyse the most recent research on the origin and treatment of CPP. Since CPP is a diverse condition, the exact cause is frequently unknown. There are connections to specific clinical processes, however it is difficult to interpret because the data from numerous research are not comparable. Up to 60% of women with CPP in the community do not have a precise diagnosis, and up to 20% have not had any kind of investigation. Irritable bowel syndrome is the factor most frequently linked to CPP in the general population, however when laparoscopy is used in a tertiary context, endometriosis, adhesions, and "no pathology" are all linked to CPP in descending order of frequency.
