IMPORTANT PRESS OPPORTUNITY

[Guest guest]

Mignatti is a writer for SELF magazine. Her e-mail address is

dianaray@... and she needs leads on her story ASAP!!!!

She is writing a story on how women deal with pain, both acute and

chronic. She needs women who are able to be OPEN about practical ways they

deal with their pain - household remedies, prescription meds, alternative

therapies - whatever. She needs women who can use EITHER their real name

(First and last) or a slighly altered name (MIDDLE AND LAST, for example)

and city/ state. So we need women who are okay about having their info

published.

E-mail her with the type of pain you have (vulvar pain, vulvar itching,

pain during intercourse, or whatever else) and how you deal with it:

Examples I have read from various lists:

-Aquaphor over the counter cream

-antidepressants

-steroid creams

-hormone creams

-biofeedback

-chinese herbs/ teas

-acupuncture

-acupressure

-yoga

-massage

-chamomille tea bags seeped in water and pressed against the vulvar skin

-pelvic floor muscle exercises

-ice packs

-diaper ointment

ETC.!!!!

If you are able to have your name published, please e-mail and tell

her how you deal with pain. Let's get information about our VULVAR HEALTH

and vulvar disorders OUT IN THE OPEN the best that we can -

She is also hoping to have some women photographed but that is NOT

necessary (though a name IS necessary).
