I am not a doctor, so don't use this article to try and diagnose yourself. Like any medical condition you should consult your doctor to find out if you do indeed have this problem and the specifics on it. This article is just here to help you educate yourself on the condition.

There are ways you can identify vocal cord dysphoria, if you notice yourself having these symptoms you should consult your doctor.

1: If you notice changes to your voice throughout the day, such as stammering or a breathless voice then you may want to consult your doctor. Make note of how often this occurs and what you were doing at the time. It may be something as simple as just being winded, but if it happens often this may be a sign you suffer from VCD. Make sure you remember the details about when it occured as these details may help your doctor diagnose you.

2: There are quite a few potential signs that you suffer from VCD and they can range from a mild case to a severe case. Some of the signs could be that when you talk you experienced unexplained breathiness, or feel like you're losing air and are suffocating.

3: Vocal cord dysphoria is caused by your vocal cords spasming, resulting in alterations to your speech. These alterations change determining on the type of spasm, your vocal cords can constrict and make your voice have an almost strangled sound to it. Or they can expand and give your voice a light breathiness. If you experience these symptoms for more then a week you should consult your doctor immediately.

4: If you're not exactly sure what is going on with your voice you may want to make an appointment and see a doctor. The doctor can examine your throat and vocal cords to determine what exactly is wrong with you, once diagnosed he can help you find a proper treatment and get on the road to recovery.

5: If your doctor verifies a diagnosis of VCD then you probably have a variety of treatments available to you. Some of the treatments you may be able to undergo is a botox injection to your vocal cords. That may sound weird but it helps control the spasms and allow you to better control your voice. This method isn't permanent and requires an injection every couple of months. If that doesn't suit you, or isn't sufficient, you could even try getting surgery done on your larynx to control the spasms. This surgery isn't as invasive or as dangerous as you may think.

There is a lot of debate about what may cause vocal cord dysphoria and although nobody is quite sure what that cause is, there are several treatment options for you to use. Just talk to your doctor and try to find the best one for you.
