Hi all
I recently had a hysterectomy on 12th Aug. I kept my ovaries and recovery has been straightforward. Since that time I've been having vulvodynia like pain.
The consultant has suggested to me that this could be being caused by the scar tissue at the top of the vagina (called granulation). This could be removed if I want.
However there could be other causes of the vulvodynia like recent UTIs and vaginal infection. Therefore it's difficult to pick apart what's going on.
So.... Has anyone else experienced vulvodynia triggered by hysterectomy alone?
By the way I am on systemic HRT and vaginal estrogen.
Thanks in advance xxx
