I was diagnosed with vulvodynia about two months ago, after 4 months of being treated for bv/yeast/uti/yeast again and more yeast. I never had a vaginal infection until I started th depo shot. I quit the depo, switched to the pill, but was still experiencing pain and burning. The gyno diagnosed it as vulvodynia. Now I've quit the pill, hoping the vaginal tearing during intercorse would quit. The "phantom" burning seemed to disappear after quitting the pill, until I got my period. When I got my first period in about 9 moths, it was PAINFUL. It left me with what I believe was another yeast infection. I treated the yeast, but am still having flares of pain. Sometimes the burning feels like someone dumped acid on my skin. Does this sound hormonal as well? I'm so confused and scared.
