Everyday I have taken microgynon for 7 years and have been diagnosed with vulvodynia is there a connection?

When I was 16years old I was diagnosed with polysystic ovaries which are cysts in my ovaries rather than eggs due to them being larger than eggs it was agony, i also got diagnosed with haemophilia which is a bleeding disorder where my blood does not clot this combination made periods impossible.

Therefore I was referred to a specialist family clinic where a lady who specialised in the pill put me on the microgynon permanently I am still currently using it and was told at the time I would not require a break at all throughout this time. I had rare break through bleeding and my periods eventually stopped.

I then got into a long term relationship in which I discovered I couldn't cope with the agony of sex I went to a gynaecologist in Cambridge uk who diagnosed me of vulvodynia they said mine was quite bad as it affecting all around the opening and inside.

I only recently made the connection on here of the long term use of my pill being possible for the pain I experience inside.

I have no idea what to do I am 23 and have been in a 5year relationship in which we haven't had sex for 3.5 years. I can't come off the pill but I fear it will worsen if I don't.

Many thanks for reading.

I don't think there is a clear cut answer for the connection between the pill and the pain we feel unfortunately. My gyno who is a professor and specialises in pelvic pain doesn't think the pill is casual but can irritate the skin...but who knows. Have you seen a Physio or any other type of specialist? There is the option of biofeedback, nerve tablets, physio, botox - if you haven't already these may offer some relief, they have for me
