Vaginismus
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
The gynecologist is the professional who evaluates vaginismus, a condition in which the muscles around the vagina contract involuntarily, making penetration difficult or uncomfortable.
How it presents: Tension, discomfort, or pain may appear in situations such as intimate relations, certain exams, or the use of some products.
Common causes: Physical and emotional factors are involved, intertwining differently in each person.
When to seek care? It's a common and manageable situation; talking about it in a consultation can help you understand it better. Raising it with the gynecologist, in a space of trust, allows you to receive appropriate, non-judgmental guidance.
