This Project Grant award of $6,154,752, provided by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279), supports research aimed at understanding how menstrual pain and bladder hypersensitivity interact to promote chronic pelvic pain (CPP). The 3-year study, starting on September 17, 2024, will be conducted by Endeavor Health Clinical Operations, a non-profit research institute at Evanston Hospital. The project will use a randomized controlled trial and sensory testing, paired with electroencephalography, to identify factors that predict which women with menstrual pain are at higher risk of developing CPP and can benefit from early preventative treatment with NSAIDs. The goal is to improve understanding of pain risk heterogeneity and develop strategies to prevent the progression from menstrual pain to chronic pelvic pain conditions.
