Vulvar vestibulitis is believed to be the most frequent cause of dyspareunia in premenopausal women, with the symptoms affecting the patient's life in several ways. We therefore assessed the level of depression and state anxiety in women with vulvar vestibulitis and their partners, and the association of depression and state anxiety with genital symptoms. In this prospective study, 30 women were included at their first visit, and the diagnosis was set. They were asked to fill in questionnaires concerning genital symptoms, pain and well-being, and the results were compared with those of healthy, age-matched and sex-matched controls. Twelve partners were included and their level of depression and anxiety was assessed. Our results indicate that women with vestibulitis show symptoms and signs of depression compared to controls and this must be considered when meeting and treating these women. A depressive status in their partners may indicate the presence of relational problems.
