Recently, due to the availability of NGS (next-generation sequencing) technology for microbiome testing, a large number of vulvodyia cases with previously unknown causes have been diagnosed as aerobic vaginitis (AV).
To determine if your vulvodynia is caused by AV, you can do a vaginal microbiome test. The cost for a test is about $120, but Juno Lab has offered our customers a discount code.
Once you get the lab test, we will be happy to help you analyze it and determine if your vulvadynia is caused by AV.
If your vulvodynia is caused by AV like E. coli, Enterococcus, Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, Klebsiella, and Lactobacillus iners, you can clear it simply with AV NIL.

Tips for Using Dilators Safely and Effectively
- Gradual Progression: It can be tempting to move up quickly in dilator sizes or start with the largest size in hopes of speeding up the process. However, this approach may be counterproductive and lead to overstretching injuries. Vaginal recovery is a gradual process. It's important to be patient and increase dilator sizes step-by-step to avoid potential injuries.
- Hygiene and UTI Prevention: Using a dilator can be physically similar to sexual intercourse, where the movement can potentially transfer bacteria from the skin into the bladder, leading to a urinary tract infection (UTI). To minimize this risk, it's advisable to urinate immediately after each dilation session. This helps flush out any bacteria that may have entered the bladder. Additionally, drinking plenty of water before your exercise can help maintain adequate urinary flow and pressure, further aiding in the prevention of UTIs.
By following these guidelines, you can ensure a safer and more comfortable experience with dilator exercises.
