May is Pelvic Pain Awareness Month

Image

Each May, the IPPS unites individuals and communities not only to raise awareness, but to generate vital support for those living with chronic pelvic pain through the Move Against Pelvic Pain (MAPP) Challenge. Research shows that regular movement and activity is one of the best methods to combat pevlic pain, and the MAPP Challenge encourages you to lace up your shoes, grab a friend or family member, and get moving!

Every dollar raised fuels IPPS’s mission by expanding access to care, advancing provider and patient education, and supporting the scholarships and research that lead to better treatment options. Through collective effort and generosity, this campaign helps ensure that more people receive the understanding, resources, and quality care they deserve.
