Vaginismus — What is it?

Vaginismus is a recurrent and/or persistent involuntary muscular spasm in the outer part of the vagina that causes pain during sexual intercourse.

Do I have Vaginismus? Ask yourself:

  • Do you experience moderate to severe pain during sexual intercourse?
  • Do you feel apprehensive at the thought of the next sexual encounter?
  • Do you find yourself tightening the pelvic floor muscles in anticipation of intercourse, vaginal examination or insertion of a tampon?
  • Does this condition cause confusion, conflict and tension in your relationship with your partner?
  • Do you feel embarrassed, anxious and worried that something may be "wrong" with you?

If you have answered "yes" to these questions,
you may be experiencing Vaginismus.

Causes & Effects of Vaginismus:

How did I get this?


There are many possible causes of Vaginismus.
Some factors are:
  • Physical- pain which leads to a fear/pain cycle
  • Psychological- fear of pain or pregnancy
  • Social- norms, religious taboos regarding sex, a traumatic experience
  • Relational - resentment or negativity towards partner or sex in a broader sense, insufficient foreplay or arousal

What does it mean for me?

Vaginismus is often a taboo topic even amongst women. Some affects of Vaginismus are:
  • Feeling isolated and ashamed
  • Feeling misunderstood at the gynecologist's office as to the degree of pain and fear during a pap-test/ examination
  • Resigning yourself to a life devoid of a fulfilling sexual relationship
  • Having your partner feeling confused, frustrated, rejected and inadequate
  • Worried that your relationship will almost inevitably deteriorate.

Treatment:

Effective treatment is available

By addressing the core issues that cause Vaginismus, you can:
  • Free yourself of this condition to enjoy a full, vibrant sexual life
  • Feel complete and whole as a woman instead of wondering what is wrong with you
  • End conflict and tension with your partner and restore closeness and intimacy in your relationship
  • Enjoy a woman's right to a fulfilling sexual experience.
