How the London Vulva Pain Clinic Can Help to Support You
Finding support for vulva pain is not always an easy road, and in some cases, sufferers can spend years trying to get a correct diagnosis and the right treatment to successfully get their life back on track. Generally speaking, across the length and breath of the UK, countless women who have to deal with the distress from vulva pain and vulvodynia, have been very let down. This is primarily due to the fact that the majority of general practitioners (GPs), have not undergone the necessary years of additional training and experience that are necessary to be a Pain Specialist.- Something that is often essential when it comes to giving an accurate diagnosis. Moreover, most GPs do not have the time to keep up to date with the latest cutting-edge research and studies on various aspects of vulva pain and vulvodynia, and so they may not be aware of the latest treatment options. And along with all the aforementioned, it is extremely difficult to find a dedicated Vulva Clinic.
