Pelvic Myoneuropathy

Pelvic myoneuropathy is a new term given to the most common form of non-bacterial pelvic pain. It is sometimes referred to as chronic nonbacterial prostatitis in males, or chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS or CPPS). The mechanisms of pelvic myoneuropathy may also underlie the etiology of Interstitial cystitis (IC).

For a full description of the symptoms and treatment of pelvic myoneuropathy, see the article on Chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome. This article will merely expand on the definition of pelvic myoneuropathy.
