The patient with tied up problems of the sexuality to the pain, has an attitude toward the psychological intervention very particular which prevents from following more easily the applicable traditional canons in other symptomatologies. For different years we have not found satisfactory answers in front of many cases in which we assisted to sudden improvements of the symptom or to a to persist some discomfort despite the careful therapeutic job both physician how psychological: the symptom kept on being almost revealed itself as it challenges more intense The woman is more and more the protagonist in the actual society. Yet not always this deep emancipation of the female job is valorized and appreciated by the other sex: today we assist still to phenomenons of continuous boycottings that are born from the family and in the place of job.
