    Hi all. There is an excellent new Blog posted: Intimacy in a Relationship: It’s Possible After Vaginismus

    http://www.vaginismusmd.com/intimacy-relationship-possible-vaginismus/

    Excerpts from the Blog include:

    “Achieving relationship intimacy after vaginismus treatment can elicit a wave of emotions – for both parties. At this stage, communication is key. Let your partner know what feels good and what doesn’t – as it’s happening. It’s also important to discuss your intimacy needs before and after the act. If you’ve been away from intimacy for a while, it’s important to get on the same level as your partner. Too often, couples are embarrassed to ask questions – everyone assumes they’re supposed to know what’s right or what feels good for the other person. Physical intimacy in this sense hinges on the emotional intimacy you have with one another.”

    I encourage you to read the Blog and welcome your comments and feedback here.
