Re: Life after VVS Surgery

September 4, 2007

Hi --

Did you have constant, localized pain, or pain only on contact? Do you

know of any doctors who are trustworthy to provide this procedure?

Thanks

success rates are for women who have primary VVS. Women with

additional skin conditions like LS or LP will find relief from the VVS

but not necessarily from the LS or LP. For me the pain of my VVS was

worse than the LS which was fairly mild so the surgery was a big

success for me even though I still have the LS.

Most of the horror stories I hear are women who had Desthetic

Vulvodyina or Pudential Neurologia as their primary pain condition or

who saw a surgeon who did not specialize in the vulvar vestibulectomy.

The surgeon I saw only preformed vestibulectomies and have done

several hundered of them with only a 5% failure rate. I was also able

to talk to other women who had done the procedure with that surgeon.

That made a huge difference in my decision making process.
