I have not, but I have heard that a number of women who suspected vulvodynia while pregnant actually had vulvar varicosities, which is a far less significant health condition.

Thanks, Pam. If anyone has been treated at the Mayo clinic for vulvodynia, please let me know if the treatment was successfull. Thanks!

To the best of my knowledge, there is no known treatment for vulvodynia. Let's just hope progress has been made since I last read about it, or that my sources lack in credibility...

You may want to try treatment by way of compression therapy. There's a Michigan-based company that makes a product called a V2 Supporter that is used to treat vulvar varicosities. Maybe it would help bring relief to those suffering from vulvodynia.

I can't promise it will work, but I also don't know that it's ever been tried. Here's the URL: http://www.eganmedical.com/V2-Supporter-p/ormt-v2s.htm
