Abstract

Vulvodynia remains a poorly recognized entity with unclear pathogenesis. In a case series of six patients with vulvodynia over a five-year period in a tertiary university hospital, we describe the clinical features, the diagnostic procedures, the impact on each patient’s emotional status and discuss the necessity and efficacy of the chosen treatment options in accordance with the current therapeutic guidelines.
