DIAGNOSIS
Your doctor will evaluate your signs as well as your health and sexual histories. They’ll perform a pelvic check to identify any other health troubles that might be causing pain. You may require therapy until you can withstand the examination, and your physician will operate carefully and softly and discuss what they’re doing.
TREATMENT
Females with vaginismus can learn to regulate and relax the muscles surrounding their vagina by doing exercises. This is known as gradual desensitization, and the goal is to become used to penetration.
First, do Kegel activities by pressing the same muscles that you are using to halt the flow of urine while peeing:
- Muscles should be squeezed.
- Hold them in place for 2 to 10 seconds.
- Muscles should be relaxed.
After several days of completing the Kegel exercises, put one finger, up to roughly the first knuckle joints, within your vagina. Alternatively, perform the movements in a bathtub, where water is a natural lubricant. Begin with one finger and gradually increase to three. You’ll sense your vaginal muscles constricting around your finger, and if you’re uncomfortable, you may remove your finger.
