Vaginismus

Vaginismus is a condition where there is involuntary tightness of the vaginal muscles during attempt of  intercourse. The tightness is caused by contractions of the pelvic floor muscles surrounding the vagina. The woman does not have control on such contractions.  She may not even be aware that her vaginal muscles are being contracted and preventing her partner to penetrate.  This might cause burning, pain, or stinging during intercourse making the penetration difficult or impossible. Woman who is not able to insert a tampon due to muscle contraction is said to be the primary vaginismus. In other cases, the woman developing these symptoms later in their life is called secondary vaginismus.  

There is no definite diagnosis and treatment for vaginismus.  It can take several visits to the physician to solve the problem.  The physician will analyse what causes the pelvic muscles contractions and how to relax them.  The physician may solve the condition through counselling or through suggesting physical exercises.
