      There are three types of vaginismus:

      (1) Those who have experienced successful coitus but later develop spasms are called secondary vaginismus;

      (2) Spasm occurs due to changes in the coitus environment, which is called situational vaginismus. This situation is relatively rare.

      (3) If spasm occurs after first intercourse, it is called primary vaginismus;

      Analyzing the causes of vaginismus, most of them are the following aspects:

      a. Family education is too strict and negative about sex;

      b. Suggestive feelings of inferiority and guilt;

      c. Emotional anxiety, boredom, depression, and fear;

      d. The trauma of young mind;

      e. The pain of first intercourse induces and forms conditioned reflexes;

      f. Improper communication skills, etc.
