Dear listmembers, I need some sugggestions for this problem:

14 yo white female patient, menarche at 12. Never had sex. Have vulvodynia since two yr. Very intense vulvar pruritus, day and night. This young girl is very comprehensive and collaborative. Cannot tolerate this symptom anymore...

-exam is negative (hymen intact) -cultures are negatives: no fungus -no chemical: soap, lotion, perfumes, etc -tried : antifungals (empirically) and steroids creams; topical estrogen or testosterone; Elavil with no result at all...

Any idea on the etiology of this vulvar itching. What else to try/to do ?

Thanks for your attention

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
