As mentioned above, the multidisciplinary approach is essential in the treatment of vestibulitis. Natural treatments include a correct lifestyle that avoids the use of aggressive soaps that alter the pH of the vaginal ecosystem, excessively tight-fitting clothing, and food containing simple sugars and/or yeasts.
The use of clothing that is not too tight to avoid microtraumas to the vaginal mucosa, and underwear made with natural and non-colored fabrics is advice that is always given to women with vulvar vestibulitis, and in general to women suffering from genital problems . It is necessary to pay attention to the quality of the fabrics to avoid creating further irritation. In fact, colored linen can release irritating substances not only during washing but also when worn; briefs with workmanship or in raw fabric can cause friction that exacerbates the irritation and the consequent burning / pain sensations.
DERMASILK pure silk fibroin underwear is indicated for this pathology, as it is transpiring and extremely delicate in contact with the most sensitive skins.
The effectiveness of DERMASILK underwear is immediate and the benefits are seen from the first two / three days of use.
Below are the results of the "Improved or Reimbursed" survey which demonstrate the reduction of symptoms in 100 women interviewed after 30 days of using DERMASILK briefs.
- Women with recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis: after one month of continuous use of DERMASILK briefs, 87% of those concerned no longer had itching and 78% no longer had leucorrhoea.
- Women with lichen sclerosus: after one month of continuous use of DERMASILK briefs, 92% of those concerned no longer had pain.
- Women with vulvar dermatitis: after one month of continuous use of DERMASILK briefs, 67% of those concerned no longer felt itchy.
Other precautions to pay attention to and useful to put into practice are the use of cotton and hypoallergenic sanitary pads, and adequate intimate hygiene, which should not be confused with continuous and excessive washing of the genitals; washing morning and evening is enough; in the case of women, during the cycle it is recommended to wash at each change. What, then, does proper intimate hygiene consist of? You have to wash your private parts thoroughly. The direction of movement must be from the genitals towards the anus: reversing the direction of washing is wrong because the microorganisms are transported towards the genitals.
Activities that solicit the private parts (cycling, horse riding, stationary bikes...) should also be avoided.
Vestibulectomy / vulvar vestibuloplasty surgery can be resorted to only and exclusively in the most serious cases for which treatments are not effective.
In couples where the woman is affected by vulvar vestibulitis there is a significant alteration of balance, therefore once the medical problem has been resolved, psychological support may be necessary to regain balance and stability in the relationship.
