Patient's question:
Since entering university, my vagina has frequently experienced spasms. Sometimes it's a spasm, and I'm not sure if it is, but whenever it spasms, it's extremely painful, like there are needles inside. It also happens at night, and sometimes the pain wakes me up.Doctor's answer:
Vaginismus is a psychophysiological syndrome characterized by involuntary spasmodic contractions of the outer one-third segment of the vaginal muscles, as well as the bulbocavernosus muscle, superficial transverse perineal muscle, and levator ani muscle, when the penis or other objects are inserted into the vagina. Women of any age, from the beginning of sexual activity to old age, can experience this condition. The severity varies greatly, with severe cases where the penis cannot be inserted and sexual intercourse is impossible, and mild cases where intercourse causes pain. Your situation is normal, so there is no need to worry. Pay attention to hygiene in your daily life.
