For the vaginismus patient, a setback is like getting a flat tire while on a journey to a wonderful life.
Very often one need to experience setbacks in order to achieve success! The important thing to remember is that a setback does not mean that you have to start all over again or give up on your goal or dream to have pain-free sexual intimacy with your loved one. All setbacks are opportunities to learn about one’s self. One needs to recognize what caused the setback and then have a plan to get back on-track.

- Some of our vaginismus patients have setbacks a few days after starting to dilate when dilation is not working as well as immediately after the Botox Treatment.
- Then there is setbacks later in their recovery . . . sudden, unexplained pain to dilating.

You will continually be exposed to the same setbacks until you learn from them and start doing things differently. Always remember to believe in yourself, do not lose hope and keep trying until you succeed!
