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 …

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- …

I was first told basically to just go home and use hydrocortazone, then I went …

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 …

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 …

Yellow discharge
Hey all,
I was curious about how many of us women frequently have thick, yellow discharge. I have had this for as long as I can remember.

Re: Yellow discharge
Hmmmm WELL!!! I've noticed I now have no discharge at all! Zip zero nada! Which is odd. Kind of dry in there.

I used to get yellow discharge only after my period but now I seem to have it all the time.

Re: Yellow discharge
I wonder if discharge is related to yeast...with my decreased sugar intake I get way less discharge.

Yeah Noni, I also I find that my discharge decreases when I'm sticking to the candida diet and then suddenly increases if I eat a biscuit or something.

Re: Yellow discharge
I have had yellow discharge since I started my periods at 14. My Gyno said it's completely normal, we are supposed to have it. Shows vagina is cleaning itself properly

Re: Yellow discharge
I haven't posted my full story yet, but one thing I was curious about was if anyone else had issues with discharge. One of my main complaints is a constant discharge. The more I have, the worse the burning seems to be. Every time I have a swab or culture, nothing out of the ordinary is found. I asked my latest doctor about what to do and she said she wanted to address the burning and irritation first. (although I would assume they are related?!)
Sometimes the discharge is yellow and very thick, almost like rubber cement. Other times it is white and chunky. And still other times it is thin and clear. Now I know we all have discharge at various times during our cycles, but this definitely not "normal."
In another group I have been a part of, most of the women say they have no discharge and instead are very dry if anything. (most women are menopausal or post-menopausal and I am not in that boat just yet at 32) Therefore, this discussion is interesting to me...

Re: Yellow discharge
My discharge is different throughout the month. I know discharge is stringy and thicker during ovulation. I have spotting before my period so, my discharge is yellow/brown. Otherwise, there are days i have little discharge and some days a little more. i would say if discharge is white/ chunky, to me, it would seem that would be yeast??? very strange.
