First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looked at whether a group therapy program combining psychotherapy and physiotherapy could help women with long-lasting pelvic or belly pain. Only 8 women took part, and the study was stopped early. Researchers measured changes in pain impact, daily activities, and emotional well-being using questionnaires.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- group therapy combining psychotherapy and physiotherapy
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this approach could offer a non-drug way to help women manage chronic pelvic and belly pain and improve their quality of life.
- What could go wrong
- The trial was terminated early and included only 8 women, so results are very limited. It is unclear if the therapy works better than no treatment or other options.
