Description

Cutting through the pain - description

Breaking the silence around sexual pain

« Cutting through the pain » is designed as a personal inquiry. Lisa Dayan explores in this work the ten years during which she endured vulvodynia and vaginismus. She shares her feelings, her wanderings, and the stages of her recovery. Her care journey, marked by medical violence, reveals the cruelty of certain treatments: doctors amputated part of her body when she was simply seeking to free herself from pain.

Its aim is a crucial one: to provide support for people suffering from these conditions by shedding light on the medical solutions available. This powerful account seeks to break the taboo around sexual pain in people with vulvas.

Embry A. (5/5)

Témoignage poignant et nécessaire

"Témoignage poignant sur cette maladie invisible qui touche beaucoup (trop) de femme et qui reste méconnue du public et des médecins. Certains passages m'ont rappelé mon propre parcours (l'errance medicale et le manque de considération par certain•e•s médecins surtout) tandis que d'autres m'ont scandalisé. Bravo et merci à Lisa pour son courage"

Julia G. (5/5)
