Vulval Pain

Many women, at some stage in their lives, will experience vulvodynia.  Vulvodynia is chronic vulvar discomfort, or pain.  One of the causes may be Vulvar Vestibulitis Syndrome (VVS), sometimes known as "burning vulva syndrome".

GAIN has put together an information pack to help you understand the conditions associated with vulval pain. This pack should only be used as a guide, and you should always consult your health care physician, for expert medical advice.
