Δ indicates the difference between the before and after mean scores. Reported p-values are obtained from the MANOVA for the Wilks-Lambda tests used to comparing changes between intervention groups. OSPI=O’leary-Sant Symptom and Problem index. PSEQ= Pain Self-Efficacy Questionnaire, VAS=Visual Analog Score, SF-12= Short Form Health Survey (MCS=mental component score, PCS=physical component score), FSFI=Female Sexual Function Index.
