“A woman sets the stage in her body for chronic vulvar problems
when she lacks the courage to change the negative aspects of an unhealthy relationship.”
Christiane Northrup, MD

What Is Vulvodynia

Vulvodynia is chronic pain or discomfort of the vulva, the area surrounding the outside of the vagina. The pain that lasts for three months or longer without any evidence of other skin or gynecological causes. Vulvodynia is usually characterized by burning, stinging, irritation or rawness of the area. The most common complaint is a burning sensation. Vulvodynia affects women of all age groups. The symptoms is most common among women between the ages of 18 and 25. Recent studies have shown that Hispanic and African American women are equally likely to develop the condition as Caucasian women.

Early difficulty or pain when using tampons may represent a primary form of vulvodynia. Research shows the following may contribute to vulvodynia:

Pelvic nerve damage or irritation

Spasms or weakness of the muscles that support the pelvic organs

Abnormal response of cells in the vulva to environmental factors, such as infection or injury

Altered hormone receptor expression in the vulvar tissue

Increased density or increased sensitization of vulvar nerve fibers

Genetic factors, including susceptibility to inflammation

Recurrent yeast infections

Previous laser or surgery external to the vagina

Type Of Pain Associated With Vulvodynia

Some women experience discomfort of the entire vulvar area a generalized pain.

Others have localized pain, which affects a specific part of the vulva, such as the vestibule or clitoris.

Symptoms may be constant or come and go.

The pain may be provoked by sexual and/or nonsexual contact such as inserting a tampon, during a pelvic exam, wearing tight-fitting pants, unprovoked (spontaneous), or mixed (provoked and unprovoked).

The two types of vulvodynia are:

Generalized vulvodynia - which refers to generalized, unprovoked vulvar pain.

Vestibulodynia, formerly called vulvar vestibulitis, which is characterized by pain experienced when pressure or touch is applied to the area surrounding the vaginal opening (the vestibule). Recurrent vulvar pain may be triggered by sexual activity, tampon insertion or gynecological exams, when wearing tight-fitting pants or even when sitting.
