The Straits Times – Unsatisfied: Half of S’pore women in their reproductive years have poor sexual function, study finds

SINGAPORE – When Ms Aisyah (not her real name), 30, could not consummate her marriage in 2022, she and her husband knew that “something was wrong”. They searched online and found out about vaginismus, a condition in which the vagina tightens involuntarily, preventing penetration.

CNA Lifestyle – Feeling pain during sex? It usually has less to do with your body and more about how you were brought up

About one in every two women experience pain during sex, says sexual wellness advocate Dr Jessherin Sidhu, and it may often be due to an upbringing that shuns and shames sex. “Around one in five women have vaginismus, and that just accounts for the number of women who speak up.”

There’s another condition that is not so commonly known. It’s called Vaginismus. Women with vaginismus find penetration of the vagina painful or even impossible. It feels like ”hitting a wall” when penetration is attempted whether with a finger, a small vibrator or the penis. I have seen women with unconsummated marriages who struggle with this silently for years.

FAQ

Vaginismus is a medical condition where the vaginal muscles tighten involuntarily, making penetration painful or difficult. It may affect intimacy, tampon use, or medical examinations. At Insync, vaginismus is treated by licensed doctors in a safe and supportive setting.

No. Vaginismus can also be experienced by women who previously never had a problem with sexual intercourse. This is what we call Secondary Vaginismus.

Vaginismus is an involuntary, self-perpetuating condition that is not normally resolved on its own. When a woman with vaginismus attempts to have intercourse, the pain experienced heightens her fear of penetration and this then lowers the success rates of curing vaginismus.

However, vaginismus is 100% curable and I work with my patients to achieve this by breaking the vicious pain cycle associated with vaginismus.

Every patient’s journey to recovery is unique, with its own set of challenges and triumphs. Typically, patients who are motivated and do not have significant complications can resolve their sexual pain or penetration problems in a few months.

We encourage partners to be involved during the treatment process. They will be taught how to facilitate your success through dilator therapy.

We also believe that having a present partner can help to provide the open communication and emotional support the both of you need to start enjoying sex again. We want to address your concerns and feelings of your partner as well.

No! It particularly frustrates me when health professionals prescribe kegels for patients with vaginismus without a thorough assessment of the physical state of their pelvic floor. Here’s why kegels should never be done on a tight pelvic floor muscle.

Yes. Vaginismus can occur at any stage of life — from young women experiencing painful first-time penetration to women later in life facing new symptoms. With proper medical guidance, it can be managed effectively.

Treatment length varies for each individual. Some women experience improvement within a few sessions, while others may require a longer, step-by-step plan. Your doctor will guide you through the process at a pace that feels safe and comfortable.

Insync Medical offers vaginismus treatment at our clinic in Katong, Singapore. Specialising in vaginismus care, we provide private, personalised care with medical, physiotherapy, and sex therapy options at our vaginismus clinic.

The cost depends on the treatment plan — from physiotherapy sessions to Botox procedures. At your consultation, our doctor will recommend what’s appropriate and provide transparent fees.
