Hello, I am a 16 year old that seems to have the symptoms for vaginismus. I am physically unable to use tampons, yeast infection treatments, or masturbate through insertion. It is like my body creates a wall, and even when examining myself in the mirror, even the hint of an opening is impossible to see without pulling to an extremely painful degree. I have never been sexually active and I was a victim of non-sexual physical abuse at the hands of family when I was younger. My only sexual experience is an attempted rape from an ex girlfriend. I have untreated anxiety and depression.
How would I go about treatment, being so young? I have a long distance boyfriend so I have to work generally alone. I’ve noticed my issue since I was 14, but it came to my attention when I recently contracted a yeast infection due to a medication I was taking, and the treatment would not go inside regardless of my attempts. Do I have to go see a gyno or can I treat on my own, like I wish to.
