My vaginal opening is really tight and sex is painful when trying to insert. The doctor mentioned I might need a minor procedure, but I'm wondering if there are other options like medications or non-surgical treatments that could help first

Vaginismus is an involuntary tensing of the vagina. People experience it at the start of sex, while inserting a tampon or while getting a pelvic exam. Vaginismus can make intercourse painful (dyspareunia). Kegels, vaginal dilators and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) can help relax muscles and stop spasms.
