Treatment of Vaginismus with Botulinum Toxin

Vaginismus is a rare but significant dysfunction with profound effects on a woman’s life, ranging from the inability to have intercourse to extreme difficulty during gynecological exams. Botulinum toxin treatment for vaginismus has shown satisfactory results in managing these symptoms.

Before the treatment, the physician applies a numbing cream to the targeted area. The specialist then determines the botulinum toxin dose individually, based on the severity of the condition. The procedure involves injecting the botulinum toxin intramuscularly with a very fine needle.
