@randinc11 Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. I’m sorry about the diagnosis that brought you here and I’d like to offer support. Can you share more information? What is vain 3? What is 5 fu cream and why did your doctor prescribed this?

I can reply with this for now:

Vaginal intraepithelial neoplasia (VAIN)
(as opposed to VIN, which is Vulvar Intraepithelial Neoplasia)

VAIN 3 means the full thickness (100%) of the surface layer of the vagina is affected. VAIN 3 is also called carcinoma in situ, but it is not vaginal cancer.
