This can have very different effects: Some women experience reduced sensitivity during sexual intercourse. Others suffer from a feeling of pressure or a foreign body sensation, or notice that sports and everyday activities become more uncomfortable. This often leads to feelings of shame, which can affect self-confidence and also have an impact on relationships.
A vaginal tightening (posterior colporhaphy) can help restore the natural balance. It gives many patients a new body image, more self-confidence, and the opportunity to enjoy intimacy freely and carefree once again.
