- Title
Vulvodynie und Vaginismus als sexualmedizinische Krankheitsbilder – drei Kasuistiken.
- Authors
Engel-Széchényi, Roswitha
- Abstract
The following three case reports describe the clinical treatment of pain that women experience in their vulva and/or vagina and which impedes or prevents sexual intercourse and reduces the women’s sexual sensitivity, both of which can cause feelings of insufficiency. The causes of these often interlinked and mutually present disorders are often (psycho-)somatic in origin. An initial gynecological examination should be followed by a comprehensive psychosomatic anamnesis. Three courses of therapy are presented in which vulvodynia and vaginismus are treated holistically in accordance with the concept of biopsychosocial causes of disease.
