So Vaginismus Awareness Day is almost upon us!

Vaginismus Awareness Day is a think we made up. But that doesn't mean it isn't a very important thing. In fact for next year we're thinking about broadening our umbrella and holding a Pain Free Sex Day. As we hope you know, vaginismus  is the term used to describe recurrent or persistent involuntary tightening of muscles around the vagina whenever penetration is attempted. If you want to read more about the condition, and what you can do to overcome it please click over to our blog, 'Moving Towards Pain Free Sex'.

If you'd like to get involved in helping women to talk more openly about pain they experience during sex please overuse the hashtag #PainFreeSex on the 15th of September.

And if you're free please attend our Vaginismus Event. We'll be hosting a webinar on the evening of the 14th of September with Krystal Woodbridge a Psychosexual & Relationship Therapist and Qualified nurse. If you'd like to join in please email advice@sh-womenstore.com. We'll also be hosting a live event in London on the 15th of September, featuring talks from Psychosexual therapists, including Sh! advice columnist Sarah Berry. We will also hear from vaginismus sufferers and the Sh! Team. Where: 57 Hoxton Square When: 5-30-7.30pm Thusday 15th September How Much: It's FREE Register Here
