Resumo
The objective of this cross-sectional study was to compare the quality of life and socioeconomic characteristics of
women with and without pelvic pain and investigate clinical and surgical findings about women with chronic pelvic pain.
Data were collected in a public hospital in Goiânia, Goiás, Brazil. Pain intensity was measured using the visual analogical
scale, whereas quality of life was assessed through the SF-36. Most women classified pain as intensive (52%) and lived
with pain for 8.8 (±7.7) years. Women belonging to the group of chronic pelvic pain scored less in all dimensions
evaluated by the SF-36 (p< 0.05), except for the mental health dimension, when compared to the painless group.
Correlation was negative (p=0,017) between pain intensity and the SF-36 bodily pain dimension. Pelvic pain presented
significant negative impact on quality of life with losses to the physical and mental health of women.
