A member asked:

Have vaginismus but why do i have random sharp pains that make it feel extremely tight down there? i thought the muscles on tensed up with penetration

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Perineal spasm: You can have recurrent spasm. Try some vaginal dilatory and make sure your anxiety is controlled.
