FAQs about Vaginismus Treatment at Dr Nadia Yousri – Aesthetics
Can vaginismus be cured?
Yes, it is possible that vaginismus can be effectively cured in a lot of cases. Dr Nadia Yousri specialises in using Botulinum Type A injections to relax the pelvic floor muscles, which helps reduce pain and discomfort during penetration. With expert care and tailored treatment plans, many patients experience significant improvements and regain a pain-free, intimate life.
How long does it take to see results from vaginismus treatment?
Most patients notice a significant improvement within a few weeks of receiving the Botulinum A injection. The muscles begin to relax, reducing pain and discomfort. Patient response times may vary depending on the severity of the condition and personal health factors.
Will the treatment for vaginismus be painful?
The procedure itself is designed to be as comfortable as possible. Dr. Nadia uses precise techniques and expert dosing to minimise discomfort. A local anaesthetic may also be used to ensure the treatment is pain-free.
What causes tingling in vagina?
Tingling sensations can result from various factors, including nerve compression, poor circulation, pelvic floor muscle tension, or underlying health conditions such as infections or hormonal imbalances. During your consultation, Dr. Nadia can help assess and address any underlying issues.
What is the reason for a vaginal lock?
A vaginal lock, or the inability to relax the vaginal muscles during penetration, is mostly by vaginismus. The pelvic floor muscles contract involuntarily due to fear, anxiety, or trauma. Botulinum A treatment helps to reduce this muscle tension, allowing for more comfortable and pain-free intimacy.
Can vaginismus return after treatment?
While Botulinum A treatment provides long-lasting relief, vaginismus can recur in some cases due to stress or underlying psychological factors. Dr. Nadia offers ongoing support and follow-up care to help prevent recurrence and maintain long-term results.
Can I have a consultation before deciding on treatment?
Yes, the first step is a detailed consultation with Dr. Nadia. She will assess your symptoms, medical history, and personal concerns to develop a precise treatment plan to compliment your exact needs.
How do I prepare for my vaginismus treatment?
During your consultation, Dr. Nadia will provide detailed pre-treatment instructions. These may include avoiding certain medications, staying hydrated, and mentally preparing for the procedure. Following these guidelines helps maximise the effectiveness of the treatment.
How long does the vaginismus treatment procedure take?
The procedure itself typically takes about 30 to 45 minutes. That being said, total appointment time may be longer to allow for preparation and post-treatment advice.
Will I need more than one treatment session for vaginismus?
In most cases, one treatment session with Botulinum A provides significant relief. However, depending on their individual response and the severity of the condition, some patients may benefit from a follow-up treatment.
Can vaginismus affect my overall health?
Yes, vaginismus can have a broader impact on both physical and emotional health. It can lead to stress, anxiety, relationship issues, and reduced self-confidence. Treating vaginismus not only improves intimate health but also enhances overall emotional well-being.
Is vaginismus treatment suitable for everyone?
While Botulinum A treatment is highly effective for most patients with vaginismus, Dr Nadia will evaluate your medical history and specific condition during the consultation to confirm if this is the proper treatment for you. If it’s not suitable, she will recommend alternative treatment options.
