PPEP Talk®

PPEP Talk® (periods, pain and endometriosis program) is a fun, medically accurate and age-appropriate program that helps students understand periods, pain and endometriosis through modern neuroscience, animation and interactive learning. Delivered by qualified Clinical Educators, it supports early intervention and empowers students — particularly the 1 in 4 girls and people assigned female at birth with severe period pain — to recognise what’s normal, manage symptoms and seek help when needed.

Resources to understand and manage pelvic pain

Living with pelvic pain can be confusing, frustrating, and isolating. This short video introduces a contemporary way of understanding pelvic pain through a neuroscience-informed lens, using our Practitioner Notepad to visually map a person’s pain experience alongside pelvic anatomy.

Our resources provide robust, evidence-informed tools for people living with pelvic pain and the clinicians who care for them. The content is intentionally designed to validate lived experience, strengthen health literacy, and support practical self-management. It reinforces a whole-person, multidisciplinary model of care and challenges the notion that pelvic pain can—or should—be addressed through a single intervention.

We provide accredited continuing professional education programs for General Practitioners, Gynaecologists, Pelvic Physiotherapists and other Allied Health practitioners nationwide. Our programs focus on improving knowledge and treatment of persistent pelvic pain to benefit their patients.
