[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are you sure it's not mental? If you viewed your childbirth experience as traumatic,  there might be a mental component. [/quote]

Idiots. Are you a doctor or medical person of any ilk? Then STFU because you sound like a moron. Please go back to your customer service job, or whatever it is you do for a living that is NOT in the medical field.  [vimeo]

It's like telling someone with cancer, diabetes, a skin disorder, ulcerative colitis, etc, etc, etc, that its in their head. Vulvar and Vaginal pain, changes, and disorders are a medical condition. [/quote]

There are absolutely mental components to experiencing all kinds of physiological illnesses, just like there are physiological symptoms for many psychological illnesses. Saying one does not preclude the existence of the other. For a woman who is experiencing intensely painful intercourse after childbirth, it is worth considering whether there is some psychological trauma that is making the pain WORSE - not creating it, but exacerbating it. That's not saying that it's all in OP's head. Clearly she is suffering. But she could do everything to address the physiological suffering and find no change to her experience if there are unaddressed psychological components to her illness.

That you react so hostilely to the suggestion of psychological components to this experience indicates that you have your own psychological things going on. I'm sorry that whoever it was minimized your suffering by saying it was all in your head. That is NOT what is being said here.[/quote]
