How To Overcome Vaginismus?

in the past year I ve been tense when it comes to sex and being fingered. I flinch when I m about to be fingered. I couldn t even get a pap done by a doctor because when they tried to slide in the thing I screamed and backed away. idk what the problem is but I m s scared I won t ever be able to have a baby because of it. any answers? I was on birth control (depo provera) from 2012-2014 and then I started 1 shot on November 2015 and it ended on February 20th. I m not on any birth control now.

Hello,

I will suggest you to start with some relaxation techniques like deep breathing, closing your eyes .also some pelvic floor exercises 15 to 20 times per day (squeezing urine holding muscles) will help you out. Start using lubricating jells like k.y jelly and during pelvic floor exercises insert initially a single finger in vagina and gradually tune your vagina for 3 fingers.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Muhammad Faisal Bacha, Internal Medicine Specialist
