Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Superficial dyspareunia represents a major health problem especially for the newly wed couples. Pulsed radiofrequency for pudendal nerve is a non-neurolytic neuromodulatory method that is effective in relief of this type of pain. Objectives: to evaluate the efficacy of bilateral pudendal nerve fluoroscopic guided pulsed radiofrequency in treatment of intractable non-organic dyspareunia, and compare between trans-gluteal and transvaginal approaches regarding patient comfort and satisfaction.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* women aged between 16 and 46 years and from a near vicinity to our facility to make her available for follow-up

Exclusion Criteria

* We had excluded women with any abnormality in the transvaginal US guided imagining, or those with any evidence of local gynecological abnormalities on examination. Meanwhile, we had excluded those women with infection at site of injection, coagulopathy or other bleeding diathesis, pre-existing neurologic deficit in the targeted region, those with history of chronic opioid use and women who refused to participate in the study
