This pathway assists GPs with navigating through the causes of pelvic pain in young women to decide a provisional diagnosis and thereby refer to the correct service, or appropriately investigate and follow-up in the community.
Please note there are limited indications for POAC-funded acute pelvic ultrasound –see (POAC pelvic policy); for publicly funded USS use access to diagnostics or DHB e-Referral if outside POAC criteria.
