Gabapentin Gel. or other topical creams

Thu May 10, 2018 9:43 am by Rosie21

Hi I have been suffering for some years with this abominable pain. I have tried most of the systemic drugs , I asked specialists and Doctors if I could at least try a topical treatment but because this requires a special prescription have been refused Has anybody had a chance of trying these? 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 …

Ok so I did the Flucozole and it really, really, really helped. I was so shocked and happy that it worked and still continues to work-Im still getting a slight itch/burn every now and then but nothing compared to what it was.
Anyway I was going on holiday so I decided to get a brazilian wax (I know crazy right!?) Luckily my beautician is great so I knew Id be ok with her. Anyway after taking a day to get used to it (I get a brazilian every once in a while but havent had one in ages thanks to the pain) I felt normal. Completely no pain, no itch, no burning nothing! I was so unbelievably chilled out because the pain was gone and because I was chilled out and relaxed I wasnt worrying about the pain so I wasnt tense or tensing any muscles.
Anyway now that its been a couple of weeks the hair has started to grow back and its only now that Im getting any pain (just a bit of itching and burning) so it got me thinking, does the pubic hair have an effect on V pain? Maybe because the hair is so coarse it rubs/stresses the nerves causing reactions?
I know its a bit out there but I cant help thinking that it must have something to do with the pain.

I hope everyones dealing ok

Im so glad to here this is working for you and im interested in trying it myself. Funny im more afraid of the pain of waxing then the vest pain. But i was curious as to your pain before the wax. Was t frim intercourse, sitting or just constant pain. And how high would you scale your pain?

I feel better after a brazillian too. Once the hairs start growing back it irritates the skin. Obvously I am sore for a day or two after the brazillian but the lack of hair helps irritation. The hair deff irritates me!!

I get a wax once every 5 or so weeks.
