bettyslocombe, huge congratulations!!!! I think the huge takeaway here that ends up being true for everyone who has success overcoming vaginismus is that it is a marathon, not a sprint. Contemplating all that needs to be done can be overwhelming, but success comes from taking one step at a time. And celebrating the small changes that happen in your psyche, your confidence, and your body is crucial to making it to the finish line. I am so elated that you were able to have penetrative intercourse – I definitely cried too because it’s such a huge milestone!

Keep up the great work and it will just continue to get easier and better!
