Mom asking questions
My daughter mentioned that she tried a tampon and it burned and was very painful. She will be going to college soon and wanted the freedom that tampons can give during her athletics. We went to Dr and the Dr did an exam and found she had tightness and soreness on her right side but not structural abnormalities and diagnosed vaginismus. She is an anxious person by nature but is not embarrassed or uncomfortable talking to me or her Dr about her struggles. We have a PT apt next. She has also been in therapy for anxiety around growing up and all that comes with that for 2 years and manages well but everything new step in becoming more independent is slow but steady. Do you have any advice for mothers? Anything you wish your own parent did to help you with this?
