Yes, there is a cure for vaginismus. This condition stands out as one of the female sexual disorders with the best prognosis and one of the easiest to reverse. With the right therapy, patients are able to resume satisfying sexual intercourse with penetration.

Generally, treatment for vaginismus consists of a combination of Kegel exercises for the pelvic floor muscles and the use of dilators. A major advantage of this method is that it is designed to be comfortably performed at home, making it easier for a partner to be involved in the treatment.
