It may not be connected.

Some believe that vulvodynia can be caused by high oxalate in food you eat.

Normally we have bacteria in our bowels that complex oxalate from food and prevent it from being absorbed in large amounts.
But using antibiotics for infections during your life, may kill these
beneficial bacteria off. Then the oxalate gets in and comes out in the urine. Oxalate will make calcium oxalate kidney stones in some people. And some believe that oxalate in the urine causes pain in the vulva.

This is a sample of the low oxalate diet:
