New Blog: A Celebration of 300 Women

[Heather34]

Hi all. There is an excellent new blog posted today that celebrates the success of this Forum thanks to each and every one of you.

http://www.vaginismusmd.com/the-vaginismusmd-forum-a-celebration-of-300-women/

Excerpts include:

“The VaginismusMD Forum is a place where any woman or man can ask any question about vaginismus and expect an answer. Since early 2012, 300 dedicated and vocal women have added to the strength of the VaginismusMD Forum by asking questions and disseminating information about vaginismus. The VaginismusMD Forum reads like a textbook in medicine discussing the complete range of vaginismus from symptoms to treatment and post-procedure support.”

“I cannot begin to describe the multiple benefits of joining this group of vocal women who:
• no longer want to feel as though they need to hide
• do not want to feel that vaginismus is “their problem alone”
• no longer tolerate being put down by their GYN doctors who too often tell them “It’s in your head” “Why don’t you just try to relax”
• do not want to feel like a freak as they watch their relationships disintegrate and their self-esteem vanish
• have tried years of failed treatments at considerable time and cost.
The power of the VaginismusMD Forum has changed all that

Women now have a voice and they know they can receive needed advice and guidance on the VaginismusMD Forum. Women are now arriving for treatment much more relaxed after posting on the VaginismusMD Forum. Buckets of tears have been replaced by smiles knowing that success is around the corner when they arrive for treatment. Patients are now concerned that they are not nervous before treatment and wondering if they should be more nervous!”

I want to thank each and every one of you for adding to the success of the VaginismusMD Forum. In an earlier post today, I shared of the way that I discovered Dr. Pacik’s treatment – through one member’s post about it in a vaginismus Forum. If it were not for this one person and one post talking about Dr. Pacik and her experience post-procedure, I do not know if I ever would’ve found out about this treatment. Let’s “pay it forward” and all do the same for other women out there. That is, let’s think of any and all ways we can advocate and get the word out about this amazing VaginismusMD Forum and share this blog in other areas as well. I have already posted about this in the ttcwithvag Forum and another member has graciously posted this in the larger yahoo Forum. Do you have any other ideas where we can post this Blog and even further spread the word about our VaginismusMD Forum and Dr. Pacik’s treatment program???

Heather34 are there other forums that we can go to and share? I went to vaginismus.com and you have to get a “pass” from purchasing something from them in order to be a part of their forum. I so want to pay it forward. Please let me now if there are other forums, communities out there that I can share my story with. :0)

I still had my old pass from vaginismus.com. The last time I posted was in 2009. I shared my success story on the forum yesterday about Dr. Pacik’s program. Surprisingly they did not delete it. It’s categorized under “Doctor/specialist recommendation”. In my post I tried not to “bad mouth” vaginismus.com. Instead I said that this “self help program” did not work for me. It even let me link in vaginismusmd.com on my post. I’ve had several views but no comments.
