Breaking the Silence (and the Taboo) with “Lady Parts”
I’m sitting at a doctor’s office, in agonizing, chronic pain, with my mom and dad. The pain is in my vulva and vagina. The doctor is a vulvar specialist. A nerve ending problem. Pain. Knife stabbing pain to the touch. If it was on my shoulder we could fix it in a day, but you know what they say? Location, location, location.
