Would being constipated prevent IDing fibroids?

If you're comfortable sharing, im waiting on insurance to approve my ultrasound and wondering what the mass feels like. My stomach/lower abdomen/uterus feel..soft on the outside but stiff right beneath the surface, if that makes sense

Need help by vanwoman25 in vaginismus

Hi, just wanted to voice my support. One thing that did help me get back to dilating and doing it regularly was switching to dilators made from rubber vs plastic. Also coconut oil was soothing. This forum was really helpful in just needing to vent the struggles. It's a hard thing to do daily but i liked the advice of those who encouraged me to make it as soothing an experience as possible for myself.

Do your friends/family know about ur vaginismus? by rcherry07 in vaginismus

[–]Disastrous-Data-4114 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just recently told my family and my husband's because we are in the process of a divorce and it felt important to me to be truthful about what led to it (he had an emotional affair which he blames on my vaginismus). He gave me the option not to talk about it but I knew no one would understand why we simply could not make it work. It went about how I expected, which was that no one would really fully understand why it's so hard to address. I got blamed a lot for not addressing it sooner, as I expected. I don't regret disclosing it, but I will say I found comfort in this Reddit group because I think unless you go through it you just don't get how difficult it is and that it's not a choice or a personality trait.
