Pain Relief for Vulvodynia

I 'm new to this board but I'm so excited to tell you about this.

I've been suffering with vulvodynia for almost 10 years now. I've tried everything. A friend of mine told me about a product that her husband uses for premature ejaculation. It's called Promescent. It's a topical anesthetic spray that slightly numbs the penis so that a man can last longer.

I called the company and they told me that they're working with a few OB-GYNs and have been getting really good results with vulvodynia. They're planning to do a clinical trial.

So I tried it Wow. Amazing results. Dramatic reduction in pain and discomfort. I just spray some on my fingers and rub it on the vulva area.

It's FDA approved so no concerns. And it's available ove-the-counter.

hello,
I just saw your message and it really sounds very interesting and it also sounds logic.
at least if a man uses it in his penis it means that you can use it in genitalia without problem..i suppose that the worse thing to happen to us is not working...I leave in uk, how can I find it? only online??
if you have some more details to say about how you feel that would be great to share with us!
I think we could try it and have an opinion about that...
have a lovely weekend!

You can order on-line. I can't post a link being a new member. "www dot promescent dot com" or just to a search for 'promescent' and look for the search results for "premature ejaculation treatment"

I don't know if they'll ship to the UK but I vaguely I recall choosing a country in the shipping information.

I hope you have as good of and experience as I have. Please let us know.

Now I need to convince my husband to try it

of course he will! it is for both pleasure!
I am very happy for you, even that I don't know you. for me any woman in this planet has to deal with this problem is like a close person...
I hope your body keeps on accepting in. with vulvodynia what I have realised is that it could help anything depending to the bodies. do you know what I have realised that helps me??? Vibrators!! it's like the vibrators make massage to the region and make it relax.....how strange?? but real....

wish you the best,
if I order it and try it I will defenately let you know!

hug,

I also feel a connection to the women on this board (and other) boards. Good to know you're not alone. Difficult subject to discuss at a dinner party.

Everyone is different so I don't know if Promescent will work for you but apparently the OB-GYN who is leading the effort says that several of his patients say that it is "life changing".

re: the vibrator idea, I've been afraid to try it but I will. What a great way to alleviate symptoms !!

hahah as long as it does not make things worst why not???? we are girls, we have needs.....
and anyway the women like me that we do not have a boyfriend we have to find a way to see for differences with our v.pain.
do you know what pisses me off most of the times??that with this situation I have my vagina in my mind most of the time during the day!!enough!!!I never thought I was going to have such a close relationship with "my little girl"!! ;-)

I can't say that the vibrator helps, but it certainly didn't HURT !!

I'm starting to move beyong thinking about my vagina all the time w.r.t. to pain. I'm starting to think about my vagina as a source of pleasure !! I'm starting to regain my sexual confidence. Vibrator helps with that !! Thanks for the idea.

i'm very happy for that!!i hope it keeps on helping!
i have to try promescent, i still haven't ordered it but i am really curious to see if it will work...
do you keep on using it?is it permitted to use it in everyday basis?
thanks for your message,
kate

It's not a preventative so it's not a daily use kind of thing. But I use it to relieve pain when that occurs ... and so I do use it often. Do you understand the distinction?

yes definitely!
thank you so much for the advice, it's so imprtant for me!

have a lovely day,
kate

Let me know if you try Promescent. From what I understand from my OB-GYN, there's just a few handful of us who have used it but every single user is really enthused by the results.

My girls are visiting for Thanksgiving .. gotta run.

The best pain relief when you are having a really bad flare up and in excrutiating pain is dihydrocoedine! Within 15 minutes of taking one the pain is gone. Need to get them on prescription.
