"A systematic literature review was performed between January 2023 and June 2023. The review was registered in PROSPERO (CRD42023391008) and was performed in accordance with the PRISMA guidelines. Material and methods: A systematic literature review was performed in six databases (Medline, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, PEDro, CINAHL, and PsycINFO) until February 2023. Studies were selected in a two‐step approach applying as inclusion criteria the search combinations of Chronic Pelvic Pain and CPP, synonyms for interprofessional therapies, and for female patients. Studies were excluded if they were not quantitative primary research published in English, if CPP was not defined appropriately, if the study population was not female adult patients, if the interprofessional intervention was not operationalized appropriately, if they were single case studies, and if outcomes did not include at least one of the psychosocial factors pain, depressive symptoms, pain catastrophizing, fear, or anxiety. Risk of bias of the included studies was rated with the McMaster Critical Review Form. Studies were summarized narratively. The review is registered in PROSPERO (CRD42023391008)."
