Vulvar Vestibulitis
Vulvar Vestibulitis
- symptoms, causes, and treatment options -
Vestibulodinia presents as localized pain at the vulvar vestibule, especially during sexual contact, touch, or pressure.
How does it manifest itself?
Patients describe pain, burning, or a stinging sensation in the vulvar vestibule. The area may look normal on inspection, but a local pressure test intensifies the discomfort. Associated itching and irritation can increase local sensitivity.
Causes and Mechanism
The condition is thought to be related to hyperreactivity of nerve endings, chronic local inflammation, and possible hormonal or microbiological changes. Triggering factors include repeated minor trauma, recurrent infections, or imbalances in vulvar flora.
