Since the birth of my son I was diagnosed with vaginismus. I had both a painful traumatic experience with induction and child labour. I was rushed in for emergency c section after my blood pressure dropped and my son's heart rate dropped. I am afraid to go for cervical smear tests so I have never had one and sometimes sex is difficult for myself and my husband. Sex was always difficult before I was diagnosed with vaginismus. I have been having health problems the last 2 months from bladder infections to coeliac disease and I really want a cervical smear test to give me more health reassurance as I keep getting stressed and worried over my health. I am looking into hypnotherapy. Has anyone been to hypnotherapy for this? If so did it work and how many sessions did it take to cure it?
