1. Introduction Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS), traditionally defined by hypermobile joints and hyperelastic skin [1], is increasingly recognized as a multisystemic disease [2] associated with significant orthopedic [3] neuro-autonomic [4]-[7], and urogenital [8]-[10] complications. Recognition of the latter problems is particularly important given the greater hypermobility in women [2] and their 4 to 5-fold majority when EDS is systematically evaluated [11].
