Help with AV pain please!

How long has this been going on? Have you seen a urologist? I had problems very similar to this. My GYN doc assured me I would be fine after my hysterectomy. Not. I was having terrible vulvar pain, like someone was pinching the area with pliers and slowly pulling, both internal and external. After 8 MONTHS my gp finally decided to refer to a urologist. Testing in OR, diagnosis, and come back in 4 months for treatment. I found a urogynecologist. I have interstitial cystitis. (not all docs believe there is such a thing). It was pretty easily treated, not cured. The pain and incontinence I had experienced was gone in TWO DAYS. I cannot stress enough if you have not found a reason and a treatment, do not hesitate to try another doctor. One of the urogynecologist actually told me doctors are taught in med school that if they cannot find what is wrong with a woman, tell her it is in her head! She said if this happens, find another doctor. I was an LPN, pain is a signal there is a problem. Don't ignore it. IC can go into remission, mine is, thankfully. Good luck. Don't give up.

Yuvafem  results so far. I seem to have taken a step back. I did have some slight burning after using the new yuvafem. And I was somewhat uncomfortable yesterday.But I do like that it is so less messy than the estrace. This is just my first week and I'm only doing the twice a week. So we will see. Part of my increase pain this week could have come from a long car ride to a funeral mid week. This dreadful condition is a real roller coaster ride. I'm trying to remember how bad I was when this started for me five months ago and how much better I am now. Stay hopeful and positive

Thank you Caroline ! Good luck with the doctor and with the maybe UTI. Great that vagifem is working.
