Good luck to all the ladies having the surgery soon. I am still processing my emotions and everything that happened but the surgery is the easier than expected, everyone involved was professional and caring and I had a fantastic nurse. The 1% hydrocortisone cream has been really helpful for assisting with soreness.
Without the surgery I would never be able to start my journey to overcome vaginismus. I still have a way to go with dilation and it won’t be a smooth or easy journey, but the stats are hopeful.
What I found helpful:
Researching info on the forum was really helpful pre and post procedure.
Not going to Dr Pacik as a last resort, based on my condition it would be near impossible for me to do dilation, but through surgery I came out of the surgery with a glass 6 dilator, so I know it will be possible to advance back to 6 in the future.
Read Dr Pacik’s book.
Take time to relax.
