March is endometriosis awareness month. Endometriosis is estimated to affect 1 in 9 women. It can cause physical issues such as pelvic pain and infertility, psychological pain, and functional limitations as well. The pathophysiology of this disease isn’t completely clear, but it’s important that women are diagnosed in an efficient manner and have access to skilled medical and rehab providers who can help them with proficient treatment. Truthfully, it takes a team of providers working together to treat the person comprehensively.
Today we will be talking with Dr. Shrikhande of Pelvic Rehabilitation Medicine. Pelvic Rehabilitation Medicine provides an advanced model of care for treating pelvic pain conditions centered around treating the person and not just the symptoms. Their network of providers include overseeing physicians, surgeons, nutritionists, mental health, and rehab providers.
