Summary

This study tests whether physiotherapy and a special light therapy (photobiomodulation) can reduce pain in women with provoked vestibulodynia, a common cause of pain during sex or tampon use. 240 women will be assigned to one of four groups: light therapy, sham light therapy, physiotherapy plus light therapy, or physiotherapy plus sham light therapy. The goal is to see which approach works best for pain relief and if benefits last up to a year.
