@jfitzgeraldMD @gyncsm Thank you for explaining. I get the need for a urogynecologist treating gynecological issues but urologists treat urological issues as well. I’m guessing that if it involves gyno issues- urogynecologist’s are better! #gyncsm

T4: Tightness in the pelvic floor muscles can create a referred pain to the vagina, vulva and inner thighs. This also affects intimacy. I have heard it referred to as burning or cat’s nails. It's a similar effect to a knot in your neck that refers pain into your arm. #gyncsm

RT @drtpelvichealth: T4: T4: Tightness in the pelvic floor muscles can create a referred pain to the vagina, vulva and inner thighs. This also affects intimacy.

T4: Lubrication can be very helpful for pain free intimacy. Muscle tightness, medications, surgeries, stress, hormonal levels and many other things can result in dryness in the vaginal tissues increasing pain. #gyncsm

T4: Dilators are a cylinder-shaped device that it used to help stretch the vaginal canal to work towards pain free intercourse. They are inserted similar to a tampon, in a comfortable position for 15-20 minutes. They progressively get larger to increase the stretch. 2/2 #gyncsm

#gyncsm please explain why there can be pelvic “bloating” when there is no free fluid on scans (or no ascites) in the early stages of recurrence. Is this an inflammatory reaction? Is anyone researching this?
