Answer

Hey! After delivering my son vaginally, my vaginismus completely resolved!! I suffered for 10+ years with this issue and was terrified of the birthing process, but now it's like I never had a problem 🤷‍♀️
I used to have to take muscle relaxers for paps (I'd kick my doctor in the head 😬) among other issues it caused. 
My first obgyn told me I'd need a c section because my vaginismus was so bad... But I found a nicer team of doctors who were willing to work with me and help me manage the pain and discomfort, I'm so glad I did 😊

Answer

I really thought about c section. My friends and family members keeps commenting how c section is bad, its a major abdominal surgery, recovery is so long, pain for 2 weeks? I wont be able to go out for about 2 weeks because of the wound, i wont be able to exercise or get in shape, ill remain with huge belly for months etc etc it really puts me down 🙁

Answer

You could have an elected c section

Answer

Get a c section. You would be able to request it as you have a medical condition.

Hey there, I’m curious for the answer too. I found out that I have vaginismus almost 8 years ago, I can have sex with my husband (took awhile for that to happen and still have pain- not every time) But vaginal exams are still a nightmare for me. I had a miscarriage two months ago and had two vaginal ultrasounds that were very painful. Now I’m pregnant again, but I’m still in the first trimester.
