Women with VA question
« on: February 17, 2020, 04:46:34 PM »

I have been wondering how many of us VA ladies actually have more issues with vulva vs vaginal.  When I was dx'ed it wasn't my vagina that was so uncomfortable but it was the vulva.  Oh my...felt like I had nettles implanted on my lady bits!

Good question!  Maybe read the vaginal atrophy threads?

4 me it was like razor blades  :o up there but the outer area was OK.

My whole vulval area looked like it had been sunburnt and it felt like that too. My GP was very unsympathetic and at one time told me i had exceeded my quota of Vagifem and wouldn't prescribe me anymore for three months. I told him perhaps he should imagine how sunburnt testicles might feel like, i now refuse to have an appointments with him and see a sympathetic GP.

Yes it's always been vulval pain and soreness for me.  Sitting and bending at the onset was horrendous but a year on I would say I am 85% better keeping fingers crossed for 100% one day

I must have been lucky, as i had no symptoms or soreness, but a bad UTI and a tiny smear of blood, so was sent for a vaginal scan , and was told it was atrophy that caused the blood, but i have had no pain or discomfort,still don't,so i sympathise with all you ladies who are suffering
