FIG. 1.

Comparisons of clinical symptoms in FGS participants before and after treatment. Symptom scales were calculated by summing assigned values to specific questionnaire responses and converting the sums to a 100-point scale. Stress, pain, bleeding problems, and amount of bleeding were identified as significant factors related to treatment in the overall FGS population. These symptoms are further compared prior to and after treatment in the subset of participants (n = 20) who had treatment and were available for a follow-up questionnaire after treatment.
