CRISCO on the Vulva???

Hi all I was just diagnosed and my dr told me to put crisco on my vulva 2x a day also is making me and my bf use dove sensitive skin unscented soup, and unscented laundry det, wear cotton under wear, and so on... She said I have to try this for 8 weeks she didn't want to start me on meds yet. Has this worked for anyone else?

Haven't tried the Crisco yet, but the other stuff yes. Please just be sure you don't put the soap, even Dove, on your vulva. Wash all around it but just rinse the actual vulva.
Dry real good before you put the Crisco on. I finally got a Rx. for lidocaine and flexeril cream. Doesn't really help much except to keep it from feeling real dry. I also use something called Yes for moisture especially if we try having sex. It makes things real wet down there and slippery.: There are different stuff out there for moisture just make sure it doesn't have glycol or glycemic acid. I think those are correct, they turn to sugar and cause yeast. Watch your ingredients. Remember, no soap on the vulva.

curious, how did the crisco work? Coconut oil stings me

I've been using crisco for a couple months. my dr. Said to do it many times a day. It hasn't helped the pain, but I noticed when I go to long with out using, it feels more raw. How did it work for you?

I haven't been using it much I feel like my vulvodynia has steeled down some but when I'm really dry like during my period and I have a tampon in I get dry so I use it the nand it really soothes me.
