About this trial
The purpose of this research study is to study the impact of an educational podcast on pelvic pain. If you decide to take part in this research, you may receive the standard treatment for pelvic pain, or you may receive the standard treatment plus access to an educational podcast series. You will be randomly assigned to receive access to the podcast or to receive standard care. If you are assigned to receive access to the podcast, participating in this research will involve listening to a podcast series. All participants will complete three ten-minute online surveys over the course of 6 months. Reasons you may choose to participate in this research are if you want to learn more about pelvic pain and possible benefits of listening to the podcast, such as improved quality of life, reduced stigma, or increased satisfaction with your medical care.
