Consultant Highlights Hidden Issues in Perineal Pain
The article addresses the issue of vulvar pain and vaginismus, explaining that many women suffer from these conditions silently and believe they are normal. Obstetrician and gynecologist Dr. Lama Al-Yahya clarifies that vulvar pain includes sensations of burning or stabbing without any obvious infection, and that vaginismus is an involuntary contraction of the pelvic muscles that makes penetration difficult or impossible. She emphasizes that the causes of vaginismus are diverse, including fear, trauma, misinformation, and organic factors. There are multiple treatment options available, such as education, psychological therapy, physical therapy, vaginal dilators, and sometimes Botox injections. She also underscores the importance of accurate diagnosis to effectively treat the condition.
