Please Help! I Just Wanna Be Gone!?

Hello everyone. I'm a 19 year old female that suffers from
Vulvodynia. I haven't been able to seem to get better. The creams relieved me from some things, but it always comes back. I just became sexually active and I'm not sure if this is the cause of pain during the beginning of intercourse. My gyno said it was, but in 6 months, if I still have pain 'cause I just became sexually active, he can make a small incision and cut me. I don't know if this would help or not. I'm completely miserable and depressed. I've tried creams and oral medication. I'm tired of the anti-depressants he keeps on tryin' to get me to take. I'm so depressed over this. I just wanna be better. I've literally been in a hysterical crying state for the pat hour. It seems like I'll never be normal again. Also, I'd like to chat with some of you on messenger, if you have vulvodynia and it's okay. Contact me through my screen name ohiocountrygirl06@yahoo.com. Thanks for your guys' time.

Oh sweetie, I am sorry that you are having such a rough time. My advice would be to get a second opinion. Why should you have to sit around and wait? This doctor probably has no idea what it is like to be sitting around in pain. I had a similar problem with my OB, he was a man and didn't understand "women's pain", check and see if there is another doctor that you can see in the mean time. Best of luck to you, and God Bless you.

Maybe this website can give you some kind of confront to deal with you problem sorry to hear that hope the pain goes away.

You should get a second opinion and research this online as much as you can. You may be able to find a forum or place to talk about this with other women who suffer. Meanwhile, I wouldn't rule out those antidepressants. Who wants to be sad and unhappy all the time? Speaking of antidepressants - from reading the following article, it may be that your doctor has another reason for prescribing antidepressants. Read below:

"Glazer says treatments reflect the components of the self-protective mechanisms, so anti-inflammatory drugs, such as high-potency steroids, antihistamines, or Cox-2 inhibitors are often used. Tricyclics, which are mainly antidepressants, as well as anticonvulsant drugs, often work to relieve pain. Topical nitroglycerine may be used to open blood vessels." - From www.medicinenet.com

Good luck and I pray that you are able to find relief from this soon.
