The lack of interprofessional persistent pelvic pain management programs that address the complex interplay of biopsychosocial factors result in lengthy wait times and negative health outcomes. Limited access to evidence informed self-management educational resources contributes to poor coping strategies. Evidence shows that self-management education and strategies support patients while they wait for care. However, very few studies explore the patient\u2019s lived experience of participating in an online educational program designed for persistent pelvic pain.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n
