title: Autonomic dysfunction in women with chronic pelvic pain.
abstract: We compared the Autonomic Symptom Profile results in 16 women with chronic pelvic pain (CPP) and 15 age-matched healthy subjects. Moderately severe generalized autonomic symptomology occurs in women with CPP, but not in controls. Further study including autonomic testing is needed to confirm results and explore the mechanism of dysfunction.
