Vaginismus – Ways to Tell if Your Vagina is Big and Loose or Small and Tight

Does size really matter, well this would depend on what we refer too. If we talk of a young child in a fight, then yes, because no toddler is able for the teen, or if you`re hungry, then a small size food portion will not fill your belly. What on earth has this got to do with vagina`s you may well ask, "satisfaction" that`s what. Both instances are "unsatisfying" situations for the toddler and the tummy rumbler due to size restricting them from achieving, so this can apply to the size of the vagina also? If a person can get satisfaction from being well fed - or from beating their opponent, then why wouldn`t a person want satisfaction from their love making.

Vaginal size is not a topical subject, so chances of finding out anything from friends and family through girlie gossip, is zilch. The vaginal wall is elasticity so exact size can never really be ascertained. If the vagina is relaxed the vaginal walls collapse into each other. The diameter is less than one inch and the length will be around 3 to 4 inches. Vagina size alters when ready for intercourse. At this time the diameter of the vagina is not the same throughout the vaginal tunnel.

The narrowest part of the vagina is the opening which widens as it goes in deeper. Normally the front part of vagina has a size of one and a half inches. The deeper into the vagina you go the bigger the diameter. The back end is usually a diameter of 2 1/2 inches. The front vagina wall has the length of 2 inches and the back end is 3 totaling approximately 6 inches.

" Likelihood of air getting into the vagina - known as 'fanny farting'.

" Lax muscles and ligaments can lead to a prolapsed womb

If you want to tighten a loose vagina start by doing pelvic floor muscle exercises. Practice includes you tense the muscles at the front of the lower part of your body - as if preventing yourself from weeing, hold this contraction for 10 seconds then relax and repeat and keep up for 5 minutes. If possible do this 4 times a day. You can speak to a gynecologist to discuss the possibility of a 'repair' operation. This draws the weakened pelvic tissues together and firms everything up resulting in a tight vagina.

Some women on a huge scale tend "not" to worry over size as much as they do of appearance. These same women believe they have an abnormal vagina because their vulva is either too large or the labia too long, or that bits of it protrude unevenly. If you are one of these women it does not mean you have an abnormal vagina, what it means is, is you have one slightly different from others. Getting back to vagina size, we have women who think their vagina too small. Statistically this is most unlikely. Symptoms that show smallness: is

Vaginismus is a condition and the primary reason why women get mixed up for the smallness. Vaginismus causes the vaginal muscles to contract when intent on making genital contact. An internal examination is normal procedure carried out to clarify that this is the problem. Unfortunately with vaginismus a woman can do nothing to prevent the condition from happening because symptoms are entirely involuntary. Vaginismus can have a woman experience burning, pain, penetration problems, or complete inability to have intercourse.

The tightness is actually caused by involuntary contractions of the pelvic floor muscles surrounding the vagina. The tightness can be so restrictive that the opening to the vagina shuts altogether making penetration near to impossible for the man. As like with most conditions there can be several specific types, and this applies to vaginismus also. If a woman has always experienced pain while having intercourse due to this muscle spasm it is called "primary vaginismus." Recognized suffering from this type is not able to wear tampons. Another type is the "secondary vaginismus" more known more for developing later in life. Women can have this after years of uncomplicated sexual intercourse. It is normally hurried along by a medical condition, traumatic event, childbirth, or menopause.

Vaginismus is curable and a condition not to be ashamed of. Your doctor is the person with all the answers if you need to know more. It is not a concern to deeply worry over, as treatment is pretty much straight forward. Vaginismus treatment does not require drugs, surgery, or any other complex persistent methods, so no need to hold back on seeking treatment and suffering any longer.

" Unintentional uncontrolled spasms of the muscles in the vagina

" Dread of pain

" Fear of penetration

" Loss of sexual yearning near to penetration

" Difficulty and pain, inserting a tampon, or penis
