ASSESSMENT:
Dyspareunia (ICD-10 N94.10). Patient’s symptoms are
consisting with a diagnosis with recurrent genital pain
associated with sexual activity. Dyspareunia is painful sexual
intercourse due to medical or psychological causes. It can affect
a small portion of the vulva or vagina or be felt all over the
surface. (Al-Abbadey, Liossi, Curran, Schoth, Graham, 2016).
Dyspareunia is not exclusively due to lack of lubrication or
vaginismus and is associated with distress or interpersonal
difficulty. May be the result of organic, emotional, or
psychogenic causes. It could be primary in these cases present
throughout one’s sexual history with potential relationship
between primary dyspareunia and vaginismus, low libido, and
arousal disorders. Secondary arising from some specific event
or condition (e.g., menopause, drug) More than 50% of all
sexually active women will report dyspareunia at some time.
(Domino, F., 2020).
Superficial dyspareunia: pain at, or near, the introitus or vaginal
barrel associated with penetration.
Deep dyspareunia: pain after penetration located at the cervix or
lower abdominal area. (Merck Manual)
Differential diagnosis
1. Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (ICD 10 N73.9). Pelvic
inflammatory disease is a term for infection of the female
15. reproductive organs such as ovaries, fallopian tubes, uterus,
cervix, or vagina, characterized by abdominal pain, dysuria and
dyspareunia. Most common causes are STD’s (gonorrhea and
Chlamydia), foreign device such as IUD and abortion. The
patient in this case complained of dyspareunia intense pelvic
pain during intercourse but denies vaginal yellowish discharge
or dysuria which leads us to a diagnosis of PID. (Al-Abbadey,
Liossi, Curran, Schoth, Graham, 2016).
2. Acute cystitis (ICD 10 N30.01). Is the infection of the
bladder, or of the urethra and sign and symptoms include
bacteriuria, frequency, urgency, suprapubic pain and or
hematuria. It is defines as an invasion of microorganism to the
bladder. Women tend to get infections more often than men
because their urethra is shorter and closer to the anus. This
patient denies symptoms like dysuria, frequency, urgency or
hematuria, her complaint is pain during sexual relation. (Al -
Abbadey, Liossi, Curran, Schoth, Graham, 2016).
3. Vaginal irritation (ICD-10 N98.8). Due to pain during
intercourse and not complaint vulvar irritation by the patient
ruled out due to the absence of etiology in this case.
PLAN:
Diagnostic tests ordered to support the diagnosis:
Lab test:
· Complete blood count (CBC) with differential to search for
evidence of infection
· Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR)
· Urinalysis (UA)
· Abdominal ultrasonography
· Smear, Wet mount examination for infectious agents.
· Pap smear (Cytopathology cervical/vaginal)
16. Pharmacological treatment:
The goal of pharmacotherapy is to treat sexual pain:
· Ibuprofen 800 mg 1-tab P.O TID as needed for pain.
Non-pharmacologic treatment:
· Avoid chemical irritants such as douches and deodorant
tampons.
· Avoid stress
· Healthy food (High in fiber)
· Exercises
· Sitz baths may relieve the pain.
· Perineal massage.
Patient education:
Educate the patient and the parent regarding the nature of
problem, reassure both that there are solutions to the problem.
Emotions are deeply intertwined with sexual activity, so they
might play a role in sexual pain. Emotional factors include:
Psychological issues. Anxiety, depression, concerns about your
sexual abuse, fear of intimacy or relationship problems can
contribute to a low level of arousal and a resulting discomfort
or pain. Stress is other problems that provoke that situation.
This can contribute to pain during intercourse. It can be
difficult to tell whether emotional factors are associated with
dyspareunia. Initial pain can lead to fear of recurring pain,
making it difficult to relax, which can lead to more pain.
Delay sexual relation until symptoms clear or resolves.
Balance diet and avoid constipation, practice exercises
regularly.
Follow-up/Referrals:
17. Follow-up: Next office visit will be in 1 week for re-evaluation
and lab report.
Referrals: Referral mental health/counseling.References
