Somatosensory Rehabilitation Program for Vulvodynia

"The age criteria for this research are 18-45 years old."

"Evidence on clinicaltrials.gov suggests that recruitment for this medical trial has ceased, with the initial posting occurring May 16th 2022 and last update happening October 31st 2022. At present, there are no active searches; however, 10 other trials are currently recruiting patients."

"This clinical trial seeks 44 individuals aged 18 to 45 years old with a verified diagnosis of vestibulodynia. In addition, these participants must have experienced moderate to intense (at least 5/10 on the pain scale) in their vulvar vestibule for at least 3 months, during most vaginal penetrations or activities that involve pressure being applied to the vagina."

"This trial aims to assess patient adherence rates over a 12-week period. Secondary endpoints include Two-point Discrimination Test, Credibility and Expectancy Questionnaire, and Vulvar Tactile Allodynia Severity (VTAS). VTAS involves the use of seven monofilaments with various force levels being applied to the outside border of a participant's vulvar vestibule to determine their sensitivity threshold. The result is expressed as the minimum pressure required for an increase in discomfort, with lower values indicating more severe allodynia. Meanwhile, the Credibility and Acceptability Questionnaire examines participants' expectations by measuring 3 criteria"
