"You just need to have a glass of wine." That was said to my patient once. Dyspareunia is very prevalent and rarely discussed. Vulvar pain is commonly treated with pelvic floor physical therapy. Physical therapists are musculoskeletal specialists and after proper diagnostic work ups with a physician (to rule out infections, etc) we are able to address muscle overactivity, imbalance, and prescribe home programs. I have seen many women return to a thriving sex life! To find a practitioner: www.pelvicpain.org.
