Vaginismus Treatment
in Riyadh:
Restore Comfort & Confidence
You are not alone — and this is treatable. Dr. Dina Rezk offers expert, discreet, evidence-based vaginismus care in a private women-only clinic in Al Olaya, Riyadh.
Understanding Vaginismus: Why It Happens & How It's Treated in Riyadh
Vaginismus affects women of all ages and backgrounds. The muscles contract reflexively, making penetration — including intercourse, gynaecological examinations or tampon use — painful or impossible. It is recognised as a genuine medical condition by international bodies including the ISSWSH and treated under evidence-based protocols endorsed by the IAAUG.
-
Psychological TriggersPrevious trauma, anxiety about sex, or negative beliefs about intimacy can condition the pelvic floor to contract protectively.
-
Medical CausesHormonal changes (post-menopause, post-partum), infections, endometriosis, or prior painful procedures can trigger or worsen vaginismus.
-
Cultural & Religious BackgroundStrict upbringing or misinformation about female anatomy can create involuntary fear responses that manifest as vaginismus.
-
Relationship StressInterpersonal conflict, fear of pregnancy, or lack of emotional safety can contribute to ongoing pelvic floor tension.

Vaginismus Treatment Options in Riyadh: Botox, Tesla HIFEM & More
No two cases of vaginismus are identical. Dr. Dina Rezk designs a tailored multi-stage programme for each patient, combining the therapies below based on your specific triggers, severity, and goals.
| Treatment | Type | Sessions | Recovery | Best For | From (SAR) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Botox Injection | Minimally Invasive | 1–2 | 24 hrs rest | Moderate–severe spasm | 3,500 |
| Tesla HIFEM Chair | Non-Invasive | 6–8 | None | Mild–moderate, pelvic floor retraining | 2,500 |
| PRP Therapy | Minimally Invasive | 3–4 | Minimal | Secondary vaginismus / dryness | 2,800 |

| Combined Protocol | Multi-Modal | 8–14 | Minimal | Comprehensive / long-standing cases | 6,500 |
A thorough gynaecological and psychological history is taken. Dr. Dina Rezk assesses vaginismus severity (Lamont grade 1–4) and confirms Botox suitability. This is a relaxed, unhurried conversation.
⏱ 60 min consultationTopical anaesthetic cream is applied 30–45 minutes before injection to maximise comfort. The procedure itself is virtually painless for most patients.
⏱ 30 min pre-procedurePrecise injection of botulinum toxin into the puborectalis and levator ani muscles. This temporarily relaxes the involuntary spasm, creating a therapeutic window for dilation and retraining.
⏱ 15–20 min procedureWithin the Botox window (6–8 weeks), a structured progressive dilation programme is followed at home with weekly clinic check-ins. Most patients complete penetration within this period.
⏱ 6–8 week windowReview appointments at 2, 6, and 12 weeks post-procedure. Psychological support and pelvic floor physiotherapy are prescribed as needed to cement long-term results.
⏱ Ongoing supportThe Tesla Chair uses High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic (HIFEM) technology to induce thousands of supramaximal pelvic floor contractions per session — equivalent to 12,000 kegel exercises — without any internal examination or insertion.
⏱ Completely non-invasiveFor vaginismus, the goal is neuromuscular re-education: teaching the pelvic floor to contract and relax on command, reducing the hypertonicity that drives vaginismus.
⏱ 6–8 sessions recommendedYou sit fully clothed in a specialised chair. Sessions last 28–30 minutes. Many patients describe a tingling sensation and visible muscle contractions. No pain, no downtime, no recovery needed.
⏱ 28–30 min per sessionTesla sessions are combined with a progressive dilation programme and, where appropriate, brief cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) sessions to address the psychological component of vaginismus.
⏱ 6–12 week programmeUnderstanding your anatomy removes fear. Dr. Dina Rezk provides a full guided education session with anatomical models, explaining exactly what happens physiologically during vaginismus.
A graduated dilator kit (Sizes 1–5) is provided. You progress at your own pace, beginning with visual exposure and relaxation breathing before any insertion. No pressure, no timelines imposed.
CBT exercises help identify and reframe automatic negative thoughts and fear responses associated with penetration. These can be delivered in-clinic or via telehealth consultations.
With patient consent, partners can be included in specific sessions to improve communication, reduce performance anxiety, and build mutual understanding of the condition.

"I tried for years — different doctors, different countries. Dr. Dina was the first person who gave me a real, structured plan. The Tesla sessions were painless and I noticed a difference from week 3. I graduated from the programme in 10 weeks."
"The Botox was much easier than I feared. Dr. Dina walked me through every step and I didn't feel any pain. Within 5 weeks I completed the dilation programme. The follow-up care was exceptional — she checked in between sessions."
