It’s kind of frustrating when women tell me that intercourse is painful. Then I say “do you use a lubricant?’ and then they say:” uh, no, aren’t I too young to need a lubricant?” And then I say…“Uh…no…”
Here’s the deal…women often need lubricants at different ages, different stages in life and even different times of the month. Lubricants make intercourse easier and definitely take away any pain or irritation that dryness causes. So go for it…lubricant that is, and keep it by your bed!
The vaginismus forum at Maze Women’s Health is designed to bring women together. We understand that painful sex, vaginismus treatment, and the subsequent recovery can be sensitive topics, and you should have a safe and comfortable place to voice your experience, opinions, and concerns.
We envision this vaginismus forum as a place for you to introduce yourself, share your personal story, ask questions, and discuss any and all aspects of vaginismus, including our treatment options. We sincerely hope that you find this to be a comfortable place to discuss your struggles and triumphs as you navigate through vaginismus treatment.
