Chronic pelvic pain (CPP) is often attributed to psychogenic causation. To determine if women with CPP possess a unique psychological profile, this study examined the comparative pain experience, psychological functioning, and marital/sexual satisfaction of women with either CPP or chronic migraine headache (CH). Patients with CPP reported greater dissatisfaction with their marriage and greater sexual dysfunction. No differences were obtained for ratings of depression, anxiety, mood factors, or additional personality traits. These data suggest that, in general, when psychological disorders are observed in CPP patients, they most likely reflect the effects of chronic pain rather than be causative to it
