Intravaginal Diazepam for the Treatment of Pelvic Floor Hypertonic Disorder: A Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Trial

Abstract

(Abstracted from Female Pelvic Med Reconstr Surg 2019;25:76–81) Pelvic floor hypertonic disorder is a neuromuscular condition that causes involuntary spasms of the levator ani muscles, resulting in reproducible pelvic pain during vaginal intercourse or internal pelvic examination. It may act as a primary pain generator, a singular component of pelvic pain, or cause bladder or bowel dysfunction.
