What this Trial Is About
The objective of this community-based, non-randomized, quasi-experimental study is to assess the effectiveness of BTL EXILIS technology-based on combined radiofrequency and ultrasound-in women of childbearing age from an industrialized country with a diagnosis of dyspareunia following vaginal delivery. The primary research question is: \- Do patients experience a resolution of pain during sexual intercourse after completing the treatment? The researcher will compare the level of pain during intercourse-following at least one vaginal delivery involving a tear or episiotomy-before and after exposure to the BTL Exilis treatment in the same individual. Participants: * Assessment following childbirth with perineal involvement (tear or episiotomy) and presenting with dyspareunia. * Verification of fulfillment of inclusion criteria. * Decision on whether to undergo treatment, following a briefing by the researcher on the process and the signing of the informed consent form for study participation. * Follow-up assessment one and a half months after completing the treatment.
