Do you have chronic pain "down there"? Is intercourse painful? Do you have difficulty wearing tight pants or sitting?
On today’s episode of @bendy_bodies, Dr. Andrew T. Goldstein (@andrewtgoldstein and @the.cvvd) dives deep into vestibulectomy—a surgical option that’s often misunderstood in the world of chronic pain.
Here’s what you need to know:
🩺 There are many nonsurgical treatments for vulvar and vestibular pain although many doctors are not familiar with them.
🩺 Very few patients are ideal candidates for vestibulectomy surgery. Careful, expert evaluation is critical—because not all pain is the same.
🩺 For those who are candidates, outcomes are overwhelmingly positive one year after surgery, with many patients experiencing life-changing relief.
If you’re living with chronic vulvar or vestibular pain, know that there are options—and the right diagnosis is the first step.
