Vaginismus is a medical condition that some women develop as a result of involuntary and painful contraction of the vaginal muscles when trying to penetrate or even during a gynecological exam. Cramping can be caused by psychological, physical, or a combination of the two, and it can significantly affect marital relationship and mental health. At the Horizon Medical Care Center in Ibri, We offer integrated programs for the treatment of vaginismus that include behavioral therapy, special exercises, and medical or cosmetic treatments such as Botox or lasers, as the case may be, under the supervision of specialized female doctors and with the highest degree of privacy and comfort.
Vaginismus Treatment Procedures
We offer a personalized treatment plan that takes into account the physical and psychological aspect of the condition:
-
Comprehensive evaluation: Health history, symptoms, and past experiences are discussed, with a gentle gynecological examination if possible.
-
Psycho/behavioral therapy: Support through counseling sessions and relaxation exercises to deal with anxiety or stress associated with the relationship.
-
Progressive Expansion Exercises: Using medical extenders to get the muscles used to relax gradually.
-
Botox treatment: In some cases, we use Botox injections to temporarily paralyze the muscles of the vagina, which relieves the spasticity and allows behavioral therapy to begin more effectively.
-
Laser or mesotherapy treatment: to improve the elasticity and hydration of the vaginal tissues, especially in cases of dryness or associated pain.
-
Continuous Follow-up: The patient is supported during each stage, with an ongoing assessment of progress and improvement of the quality of marital life.
