If you’re experiencing burning, stinging, or rawness around your vulva—especially during intimacy, tampon use, or even while sitting—you may have a condition known as vulvodynia. At Femme Med and Spa, you’re in a safe space to talk openly about your concerns and find compassionate care tailored to your unique experience.
What Is Vulvodynia?
Vulvodynia is chronic vulvar pain without an obvious cause, lasting three months or more. The discomfort may feel like burning, stinging, irritation, or rawness—often with no visible signs. It can be constant or triggered by touch, like during sex, tampon use, or prolonged sitting. This condition isn’t “in your head”—it’s a real, physical issue that deserves attention. Vulvodynia can affect your daily comfort, relationships, and confidence, but effective treatments are available.
Signs & Symptoms of Vulvodynia
- Burning or stinging sensation around the vulva
- Feeling of rawness or irritation without visible redness
- Pain during sex or after intercourse
- Discomfort when inserting a tampon
- Sensitivity or pain while sitting for long periods
- Sharp or throbbing pain that comes and goes
- Pain triggered by light touch, like clothing or wiping
Uncover the Root Cause of Vulvodynia
At Femme Med and Spa, we take time to listen to your story and understand your symptoms in detail. Your visit may include a gentle pelvic exam, swabs to rule out infections, and a review of your hormone levels, medical history, and lifestyle.
We may also assess pelvic floor muscles or perform additional testing based on your concerns. There’s no one-size-fits-all answer—we’re here to uncover the root cause of your pain and guide you toward lasting relief.
Possible Causes of Vulvodynia
- Nerve irritation or injury in the vulvar region
- Hormonal changes or imbalances
- History of recurrent yeast or bacterial infections
- Pelvic floor muscle dysfunction or tightness
- Allergic reactions or sensitivities to products
- Past trauma or injury to the vulva
- Inflammatory conditions affecting nerve endings
Personalized Treatments for Vulvodynia
Your treatment plan at Femme Med and Spa is tailored to your body and experience. Depending on your needs, we may recommend pelvic floor physical therapy, topical medications, hormone therapy, or laser treatments for tissue repair and nerve sensitivity.
If your pain is connected to hormonal shifts or past infections, we’ll address those too. You don’t have to live with this pain—we’re here to help you reclaim intimacy and a life free from vulvar discomfort.
