Abstract: This study examines the causes of Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndromes (CPPS) using a mixed-methods approach. The association between risk variables and the prevalence of CPPS will be investigated using a cross-sectional study design. One hundred thirty patients in Iraq will have their demographics, medical histories, psychological characteristics, and risk factors measured using standardized questionnaires. To learn more about the participants' experiences with CPPS, in-depth interviews will be done. A total of 130 individuals with an average age of 35.2 years were assessed in a research study evaluating primary outcomes. The majority had a high school education (46.2%) and were female (76.9%). The most common symptom was severe pain (46.2%), and the main diagnosis was interstitial cystitis (30.8%). There were a variety of treatment approaches, but the most common one was medication (80 individuals). Scores for symptom severity considerably improved following treatment. 46.2% of patients expressed high levels of satisfaction, according to patient satisfaction scores. With corresponding odds ratios suggesting elevated risk, logistic analysis identified anxiety, depression, ovarian inflammation, and chronic stress as important risk variables for symptom severity. Reorienting treatment paradigms, changing policies, and educating people are all necessary for managing CPPS. Understanding origin and creating tailored treatments should be the top priorities of longitudinal research in order to improve management strategies and quality of life.
