At Gerka Clinic, we offer a compassionate and effective treatment for vaginismus, a condition characterised by involuntary contractions of the vaginal muscles which can cause pain and difficulty with penetrative intercourse. Our approach combines the latest in medical advancements with sensitive, personalised care.
Understanding Vaginismus
Vaginismus may arise from various psychological and physical triggers, including:
- Cultural or personal beliefs that view sex as shameful or wrong
- Anxiety disorders
- Childbirth injures, such as vaginal tears
- Prior surgery
- Fear of sex or negative feeling about sex, perphaps due to past sexual abuse, rape or trauma
Treatment: Botulinum Toxin Injections
Botulinum toxin (BTX) injections are a proven method for treating vaginismus by temporarily relaxing the vaginal muscles, significantly reducing discomfort and involuntary spasms during intercourse. This treatment is part of a comprehensive approach at Gerka Clinic that may include:
- Radiofrequency Therapy: To improve tissue elasticity and reduce discomfort
- Shock Wave Therapy: To enhance blood flow and promote healing
- Vaginal Dilators: To gradually stretch the vaginal muscles and increase comfort during intercourse
