My first step in finding help was to get away from gynecologist except one who was in his 70s and who kept up with current research who acted as a consultant. And another one who gave numbing injects to the cervix and for a short period of time, I felt no pain. I had to go to find help with researchers in neurobiology and womens sexuality. I had to go outside gynecology because gynecologist treat the female reproductive organs and not the neurobiology; thus gynecological surgeries create nerve damage to sex organs as the cervix/uterus, vagina and vulva. Gynecologist do not study the sexology of women or the science of orgasm as Dr. Beverly Whipple. Being a researcher, I found out from a neurobiologist and gynecologist that my problem was nerve damage of the pudendal and hypogastric nerve from a deep LEEP conization. I suspected this to be the case when only neuropathic pain medication and antiseziure medication were the only medications that would turn down the volume of the pain. The pain never ends. I also found out that many women who have orgasms when their cervix are bumped because of their innervation and when the cervix is removed these women have pain that prevents penetration, sometimes called vulvodynia in the gynecological world. I did go to a psychiatrist that confirmed that I had pelvic pain. Nerves in the cervix are directly connected to the brain stem, Dr. Karen Berkley, Neuroscientist. So I am offended by any psychological evaluation that any gynecologist gives to me. I have a pain problem from nerve inflammation in the cervix from the LEEP and a numb clitoris all caused by cutting the pudendal nerve. Gynecologist need to accept this is pain and not in "women's heads." Also, in a gynecological journal in the 1870s, I read where a gynecologist said that it was a horrible thing to amputate the cervix of a woman. I realize gynecologist like most MDs are not researchers, as with professional degrees MDs learn in an apprenticeship style which limits their knowledge to what their teacher knows before practicing; however, PhDs are researchers, and all research neurobiologists are PhDs, who must create new knowledge in the field to earn a PhD.
