BSSVD is a growing UK based international society with members currently numbering over 160 and drawn from a range of specialities such as Dermatology, Gynaecology, Genitourinary Medicine and Histopathology. The society places much emphasis on multi-disciplinary working and this is reflected in its officers who are drawn from all the disciplines.
The objectives of the society are:
- The relief of patients suffering from vulval diseases
- The promotion of research into the causes of vulval diseases on the terms that the results of such research are published
- The practice and the art and science of diagnosing and treating vulval diseases.
BSSVD also has a strong commitment to vulval patients via its support of the Vulval Pain Society (VPS) and the National Lichen Sclerosus Support Group (NLSSG).
