Hi I have been suffering for some years with this abominable pain.

Thank you I will try to put a link on to some of the research into Gabapentin Gel. Thanks.

Putnams 'bony parts' cushion or Putnams 'Dr Huff' cushion - which is best?

Sat Aug 01, 2015 4:17 pm by Fielder

Hi everyone,

I'm a newbie. I live in the UK.

I'm trying to work out the best cushion to get for my vulvodynia. I suspect that I could have pudendal nerve involvement (the aching and burning pain is from vagina to clitoris) and I have rectocele and some tailbone pain too.

I have seen some good reports on older threads regarding the Putnams pressure relief cushions....with some ladies …

An absolute success story- please read!

Dear All,

I posted on here back in March 2017 having just got a diagnosis of vulvodynia after a few months of relentless and acute pain. I was desperate, I was hurting, I was scared I would never know life without pain there again.

I tried creams, acupuncture, numbing gels, frozen pads, baths with various internet recommended concoctions- convinced myself I had lichen sclerosus, herpes, thrush- …

MonaLisa Touch

Fri Feb 08, 2019 7:35 pm by rl2091

Hi All,

I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with the MonaLisa Touch treatment for Vulvodynia? My pain started when I went on HRT(pill) for anxiety mainly and my pain abruntly stopped when I stopped HRT. However, when I started on the HRT patch (at my dr's suggestion), the pain returned and has never left. That was 7 years ago. I found MonaLisa Touch on the internet purely by accident …

Hi All,

I’m so glad I’ve found a place where there are others who understand how I feel!

So this is my story:-

I’m 36, and 4 months ago, whilst innocently sitting in bed reading I experienced a very sharp stabbing pain in my clitoris. It last only a few minutes and then subsided as quickly as it came on. It put it down to “one of those things”. The following morning I woke up …

New and need advice and help

Wed Dec 05, 2018 3:26 pm by Cin124

Hi everyone,

About three months ago, I started having vaginal and vulval itching. Then, about two months ago, my vulva started to feel painful and look swollen, so I went to the doctor. I was tested for herpes, chlamydia, and gonorrhea which all came back negative. I also had to do a vaginal swab test and the only thing that came back positive was yeast infection. I was prescribed hydrozole …

Great "natural" Hoo-Haw Wash :)

Kathye10 Wed Feb 20, 2013 8:44 am

Just wondered if anyone else has ever tried Kurt's Castile Bar Soap? I used it before V and always loved it. It makes you feel clean but is VERY mild and for me, doesn't cause irritation even after all of this. Here is the product description for anyone who is interested....

All natural, hypoallergenic, no animal by-products or synthetic detergents. Lathers even in the hardest water. Rinses clean with no drying residue. Ingredients: Coconut Soap, Water, Vegetable Glycerin, Coconut Oil And Natural Fragrance.

Two things about the ingredients...
1.) I don't know if "vegetable" glycerin is different from what they put in Vagisil, Summer's Eve, and other products with harsh chemicals, but this version has never caused me problems.
2.) Natural fragrance = coconut oil, not anything added to the bar. Does not smell like typical coconut, just a clean scent also good at neutralizing odors from menstrual cycle or sweat.

I know this probably sounds like a commercial for the company, haha, but I just really love it and hope it can be of use to someone else Very Happy
