a
Customer Testimony re: Pruritis Vulvae

"I am a new customer and purchased products from Manuka Honey USA during my last visit to our house in Florida in over a month ago. I wouldn't ordinarily share information about a personal medical condition I've had for over two years and I'm sure you won't want to publish my testimony but it may help you to give advice to others. I started with pruritis vulvae over two years ago and despite the use of different types of steroid cream provided by my doctor, the condition became chronic and I was referred to a specialist at our local hospital. The consultant was shocked to find out that I have been left so long without being referred to a specialist, and said that my skin was leathery and that I had suffered nerve end damage.   She prescribed a different type of steroid cream and the condition was brought under control but unfortunately I was only in remission for a few months.   When the condition flared up again, I applied the steroid cream but it made it worse rather than better and I was advised that I may have become sensitised to the cream. After putting on the cream I would rock backwards and forwards with intense pain and even when the pain subsided I still experienced severe discomfort, was no improvement and I could barely sleep at night. The pain and lack of sleep I experienced over several l months exhausted me, was unbearable and seriously disrupted my every day life. In desperation my daughter bought me a jar of manuka honey from our local health shop in the UK and after several days of use the condition improved but didn't get better.  You can also imagine that applying honey in the vulvae area and then trying to carry on as normal wasn't easy to manage.

The use of manuka honey prompted me to start searching the web for information about manuka honey and this is how I came across your website and decided to try the soap and manuka oil.   I had previously been advised by my consultant not to use anything but water when washing but I decided to give the soap and oil a try. Eureka ... after just over three weeks I am now sleeping through the night and I haven't experienced any severe pain for over two weeks. I wash with the soap each morning and evening and then gently massage in the oil and although I don't think I'm fully cured I'm significantly better, can sleep at night and my pain and constant itch has gone.  Even if my condition isn't fully cured, the use of your product has had an amazing result and one that people with my condition should at least try and hopefully benefit from. After two years of suffering it's fantastic to find a treatment that has worked for me. Sincere thanks for supplying a product that has not only improved my medical condition but has given me back my smile and sense of well-being and taken away my gloominess.
