Vaginal Relaxation Syndrome
Vaginal relaxation syndrome is the increase in the vaginal diameter as a result of laxity of the vaginal tissue. This laxity may be due to overstretching during childbirth or aging of these tissues resulting in less integrity.
Both cases lead to the possibility of less sensation both for the patient and possibly her partner as well as increased risk for urinary incontinence.
What can you do for yourself?
There are many pelvic physical therapy exercises which can be done for VRS even beyond the scope of kegel exercises and they would have to be under the guidance of a pelvic pt. Check out some of my good friends and other favorite pelvic PT’s on insta for free info on the topic @vaginadocs, @therealpelvicpt, @the.vagina.whisperer @pelvicsanity
