Summary

This study tested two remote, non-drug programs for women with chronic pelvic pain: a self-guided cognitive-behavioral program called My Pelvic Plan and a physical activity app called Bend. Researchers wanted to see if these programs could improve sexual function, physical function, pain, and quality of life. The study involved 49 women and compared the two approaches to gather initial information.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
My Pelvic Plan (self-guided cognitive-behavioral program) and Bend (physical activity app)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could point toward effective, accessible, non-drug options for managing chronic pelvic pain and improving quality of life.
What could go wrong
This is a small pilot study with only 49 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The interventions are self-guided, so adherence and individual response may vary.

Inclusion Criteria: * Scheduled for a new patient visit with the Chronic Pelvic Pain and Endometriosis Referral Clinic within the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the University of Michigan for treatment of chronic pelvic pain. * Have chronic pelvic pain, defined as moderate to severe pelvic pain that is ≥ 4 on a 0-10 numeric rating scale (worst pain during the day) for ≥ 6-month duration, and is non-cyclic, occurring for at least 14 days of each month. * Report moderate to severe sexual dysfunction or sexual restriction on CPP clinic intake questionnaire. This will be defined as the patient indicating one of the following responses to a question that asks them to describe their experience relative to sexual activity: my sex life is nearly normal but is very painful, my sex life is severely restricted by pain, my sex life is nearly absent because of pain, pain prevents any self life at all. * Have access to internet via computer and must have a smartphone * Willing to download and use the Bend application on their smartphone if they are randomized to that intervention * English-language proficiency (current version of the My Pelvic Plan website is in English) Exclusion Criteria: * Pregnancy (at time of screening visit). Participants will be allowed to continue to study if they become pregnant during the study period. * Severe physical impairment precluding participating in internet-based program or remote application (for example, complete blindness or deafness) * Medical condition that precludes low-intensity, short-duration physical activity and gentle stretching, including cerebral palsy, severe hip or knee osteoarthritis, severe heart failure, severe Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) requiring oxygen use * Prior care within the Chronic Pelvic Pain and Endometriosis Referral Clinic within the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the University of Michigan for treatment of chronic pelvic pain (seen previously but meets criteria for new patient visit because \> 3 year interval since last clinic visit).
