Helping you put vaginismus in the past, for good
Over the last week I have had several sessions with my partner where we were able to have pain free, stress free and pleasant penetration!! Last Sunday, we managed full penetration for the first time. It was so much easier than I had thought.. I had bought a realistic dildo (12.5″ circumference), which had been quite …
Let’s be real… For those of us who have experienced pain before, transitioning from your dilating process to penetrative sex is a leap of faith of its own. You’re already making a wonderful amount of progress in your both your emotional and physical healing journeys, AS WELL AS the often overlooked adventure of finding and …
As a professional and someone that also has been on the journey of healing from vaginismus, I appreciated the opportunity to connect with a fellow helper and healer. I was fortunate in that I was connected to appropriate and helpful providers early on in my diagnosis, but I truly don’t know how many years I …
I first heard about dilators at an appointment I really wasn’t looking forward to… You see, I was lucky enough to be able to have the opportunity to see a sex therapist, thanks to my boyfriend at the time’s parents (and their employment benefits). Although I can’t say my experience at the sex therapist’s office …
Thank you so much! Mind To Body Connection Yoga was exactly what I needed! Haven’t moved my body in SO long. And I can’t remember the last time my brain was so quiet and my body so relaxed. Feeling super newbie, but I hope that you do get enough people to keep this a weekly thing! I have …
My journey with vaginismus started right around the time most people my age were exploring having sex. I was 16 and attempted intercourse with my boyfriend at the time.

I’m SO glad to have attended the Power Of Words meet up recently. I found it really valuable to set aside an hour to focus on my vaginismus journey, through the medium of writing, in the company of other women who have their own first hand experiences of what I’m currently going through. The writing …
I have found though that many of us experience a certain level of discomfort related to the penis. Whether it’s the shape itself… Or our perception this body part has been tainted by various factors – fearful and painful experiences of the past, or simply what we’ve heard about the penis being used as a …
I have been in a relationship for about 5 years and experienced pain during intercourse after around 6 months to 1 year in it. I immediately consulted my gynaecologist but everyone just said it’s an STD or some kind of infection. They even lasered my vagina but it did just get worse. It took them 3 …
A few months ago, I had an incredibly vulnerable experience… It was arguably one of the Top 3 most beautiful and bonding moments with my partner. YES, it involved me crying, BIG time. But hey, vulnerability IS a sign of strength! It’s really important to be able to release our emotions and process them in …
