OBJECTIVE: To create a national registry for the study of @entity2411 in order to enhance classification of @entity2411 based on multiple phenotypic domains such as @entity158 characteristics, clinical examination, sexual function, psychological functioning, and distress. STUDY DESIGN: Methodology for this prospective cohort registry was institutional review board approved and implemented at 8 enrollment sites starting in 2009. @entity1 underwent gynecologic evaluation and pressure sensory testing for assessment of @entity158 sensitivity in the vaginal mucosa and vaginal muscles. Psychometric questionnaires were used to assess self-described @entity158 , distress, sexual function, and quality of life. RESULTS: More than 300 @entity1 were enrolled and 176 charts were analyzed. This cohort had a median age of 29 years and median @entity158 duration of 25.5 months. A total of 84% of @entity1 were previously or currently sexually active in spite of @entity158 . The most common @entity158 comorbidities reported by the @entity1 were @entity2704 (34%), chronic @entity2371 (22%), and @entity1744 (20%). @entity148 affected 41% of the cohort. More than 90% presented with localized @entity158 , and 90% had muscular examination abnormalities. CONCLUSION: A national registry for the study of @entity2411 was established with successful enrollment of @entity1 at 8 sites. In addition to the @entity2708 swab evaluation for @entity1931 , @entity1 with @entity1118 should also be routinely screened for @entity85 , emotional distress with specific emphasis on @entity148 , and @entity158 conditions.
