Vulvodynia: Assessment and Treatment
2016, Journal of Sexual MedicineAre Primary and Secondary Provoked Vestibulodynia Two Different Entities? A Comparison of Pain, Psychosocial, and Sexual Characteristics
2015, Journal of Sexual MedicineCitation Excerpt :A study on the multidisciplinary treatment for PVD showed that women with PVD2 were more likely to have major improvement compared with women with PVD1 [5]. Furthermore, previous research suggested that women with PVD2 respond better to vestibulectomy than women with PVD1 [15,16,20]. Published findings concerning sociodemographics, pain, sexual, and psychosocial aspects of these conditions have not necessarily mirrored the differences found in these biomedical studies.
Provoked Vestibulodynia-Medical Factors and Comorbidity Associated with Treatment Outcome
2012, Journal of Sexual MedicineCitation Excerpt :Lower levels of anxiety and catastrophizing as well as higher pain self‐efficacy prior to treatment have been found to be associated with reduced coital pain and improved sexual function. Moreover, a diagnosis of secondary PVD as well as fewer other concomitant pain conditions such as headache, irritable bowel syndrome, and back pain have also been linked to better response to treatment [29-32]. The primary aims of this study were to identify variables associated with treatment outcome in women who had completed treatment for PVD and to explore possible correlations between general pain sensitivity, subgroup of PVD, anxiety, depression, and various other medical parameters to the degree of coital pain.
Introital primary and secondary dyspareunia: Multimodal clinical and surgical control
2012, SexologiesCitation Excerpt :Gaunt et al., 2003, using failed medical management as an operative indication, described a high rate of vestibulectomy success in 38 patients over 42 (90%) with pain scores varying from 8.9 (3–13) in preoperative against 1.3 (0–8) in postoperative for improved patients, and 7.0 (3–10) preoperative against 7.3 (6–10) postoperative, in the no improvement patients (n = 4). The failure of primary vestibulodynia control has been observed by Bornstein et al. (1997) in the association of spontaneous and provoked vestibulodynia patients. He invoked different aetiology for secondary vestibulodynia, namely acquired sexual viral and bacterial infections.
