Clitoris & G-spot stimulation
Find a fact sheet
When your vagina feels very tight, as though nothing could go inside, you may have a condition called vaginismus. Vaginismus is an involuntary spasm of the vaginal muscles caused by a deep emotional inability to relax these muscles in order to allow penetration. In almost all cases, the vulva and vagina are completely healthy. Primary vaginismus, where nothing has ever entered the vagina, not even a tampon, is common among girls who have had a very loving, but sometimes over-protective background. They may have grown up with well-meaning but powerful taboos around sex and find it hard to move past that. Some women who experience vaginismus just hold a belief that sex is painful, or that they aren't able have sex. A history of sexual assault, abuse or family violence may also be associated with this condition. You can get help if you have vaginismus. Specialist sexual counselling is very helpful and is often combined with help from a physiotherapist to use a vaginal dilator or 'trainer'. Trainers are plastic tubes that allow women to learn to insert something into their vagina.
