Vaginismus: What it’s like to struggle with painful sex
This month, we’ll be focusing on vaginismus and the emotional and physical impact of struggling with painful sex. We’ll be joined by Leila Frodsham, Consultant Gynaecologist and Lead Consultant in Psychosexual Medicine, who will help guide a compassionate discussion around what vaginismus is, why it happens, and how it can affect relationships, confidence, intimacy, and fertility journeys
About the event
Our members’ virtual community catch-up sessions are a Safe Space for members to connect, share stories, ask questions, and gain support from others in The IVFN who truly understand what you’re going through.
Together, we’ll explore experiences of diagnosis, treatment approaches, communication, and the importance of reducing shame and isolation through open conversation and support around the subject of Vaginismus.
This is a welcoming, confidential, nurturing, and judgement-free space for people impacted by fertility and reproductive health issues. We hope you can join us to connect with others, share experiences, and feel supported in a safe and understanding community.
