Which doctor do you go too to get diagnosed for Vulvodynia? Do you go to your urologist or Gyn? I ask this because I think I have Vulvodynia along with my IC, but I am not sure who to go too to have it checked out.

Thanks

Hi Mum,

I have been diagnosed with vulvodynia by my gynocologist. I would suggest you visit your gyn to either determine or rule out this diagnosis. Good luck to you. Hugs, Gail

Yes, OBGYN. He asked ma lots of questions and did a q-tip test. I have vulvodynia too but doing well on neurontin. Take care! Carolyn

Hi....I am wondering if I have vulvo too? I always have that burning...like I have yeast infection...and after sex....it is extremely painful...and itches and burns worse. Is that vulvo? I also have places at the folds (creases of my legs) of my legs....it itches real bad and looks like patches of scaly skin. Is that vulvo? I cant stand wearing panties anymore. I never knew what it was...and just read about vulvo today. I guess I should ask my doctor.
