VULVODYNIA

According to medical nomenclature, vulvodynia is idiopathic pain in the vulva which lasts more than 3 months. This is certainly a very vague definition that does not give clear indications about the cause of the pathology.

First of all, idiopathic means that we do not know the cause, so when patients look for a health professional to say that they feel pain in the vulva and it is not possible to identify the cause of the pain, we will call it vulvodynia.

Furthermore, not all patients complaining of pain in the vulva have the same type of pain and the location of the pain varies from patient to patient.

Given this, it is very difficult to make an adequate diagnosis in order to select the best treatment for each woman, so that these women spend years in pain, as well as experiencing unsatisfactory sexuality.

These women will certainly hear that the problem is psychological and that they have vaginismus . In this sense, they can spend a lot of time undergoing psychotherapy without achieving any results.

DIAGNOSIS

Firstly, it is very important to understand that women with vulvodynia undoubtedly HAVE PAIN and they need treatment for the pain, this treatment can only be defined after a evaluation clear and thorough.

It is certainly possible to find the pain points that this woman presents as long as the professional has experience, listens to the patient’s complaints and carries out the appropriate examinations.

TREATMENT

At the same time, it is very common for patients who have chronic pain to develop muscle hyperactivity, which is why we also teach relaxation of the muscles of the PERINEUM.
