THE GYRL
Gynecology Research Laboratory
Period pain is the leading cause of school/work absence and foremost risk factor for chronic visceral pain in reproductive age women.
Our goal is to identify the mechanisms that cause pelvic pain, including dysmenorrhea, and prevent the development of chronic pain.
Our research is essential because there are few other laboratories dedicated to eradicating dysmenorrhea, one of the most frequent causes of suffering and gender disparity worldwide.
