Knowing what we do about laparoscopy for pelvic pain, where endometriosis is found, and where it isn’t, it seems prudent to ask why AUS doesn’t have a registry for laparoscopy. @AusWomensHealth @Monash_FMNHS #womenshealth #clinicalregistries #persistentpelvicpain #endometriosis

“The overall prevalence of chronic pain in children and adolescents was 20.8%!” That’s 1 in 5 kids on average are facing chronic pain. Don’t forget to fund paediatric research and healthcare!

“An emphasis on diagnosis can delay prompt management of pain & symptoms. Lesions are not sought before a headache receives treatment. While recognising that a cure for headache is often not possible, we nevertheless act to reduce pain & suffering” mja.com.au/journal/2024/220/…

“People accept that a migraine is painful - they don't require the pain to be visible to believe that person is in pain. Whereas with pain inside the pelvis is easier to dismiss. It's still real, it's just harder to share" abc.net.au/news/2024-04-17/t…

Rapid Fire Communications @AusPainSoc Fabulous research on Gender Bias in Children’s Picture Books. On the subject of children’s picture books, does anyone know of books for kids that explain chronic pain to kids?

A shout out to any women living with chronic pain, with particular mention to those with pelvic pain, dysmenorrhea and endometriosis. We hear you. Be heard. Share your story. #longsteppp
If you have chronic pain, do you sometimes feel like you are meant to just “solider on”? Pain is more common in women than men and is often misunderstood and mistreated. Share your story and help change the way women’s pain is managed in Victoria 👉 go.vic.gov.au/4bcmUwW
