Various methods of tightening the vagina

Over time and with age, one of the events that many women experience is vaginal looseness and sagging. Due to the cultural context in Iran, many women are not seeking various treatment methods to address this issue. They believe that reducing their sexual activity can prevent this problem. However, nowadays, with the advancements in medical science, there are various methods available for permanent vaginal tightening, some of which are natural, and others involve surgical techniques. In this article, let's explore different vaginal tightening methods.

Causes of Vaginal Looseness:

Before we introduce various vaginal tightening methods, it's better to understand the reasons behind vaginal looseness. This understanding can help prevent this issue to a great extent over time and correct the misconception, which is quite common, that reducing sexual intercourse is an effective method to prevent this problem.

In general, vaginal looseness occurs when the inner tissues of this part of the body experience tearing due to various reasons or lose their elasticity over time. Therefore, over time, if you don't pay enough attention to the health of this area of your body, the natural elasticity present in this area disappears, leading to various problems. Some of the most important reasons that lead to vaginal looseness include:

Natural childbirth
Weight gain and obesity
Lifting heavy objects
Injuries to the pelvis
Menopause
Back pain
Frequent sneezing and coughing
Frequent constipation
Engaging in heavy exercises

What is Vaginal Tightening Surgery?

Vaginal tightening surgery, also known as vaginoplasty, is a cosmetic and therapeutic procedure used for women who suffer from vaginal looseness and sagging. During this surgical procedure, which can be performed through various methods, not only are the vaginal muscles strengthened, but also the distance between the anus and vagina is reconstructed.

The need for this surgery increases with age, especially in individuals who have had natural childbirth. During natural childbirth, the pressure exerted on the vaginal muscles as the baby's head is being delivered can lead to their loosening.

Performing this surgery along with labiaplasty surgery is feasible on the same day and gives individuals who are not satisfied with their marital and sexual life another opportunity to enjoy themselves.

Surgical Methods of Vaginal Tightening:

Among the methods available for tightening the genital area, the use of medical and surgical methods provides greater reliability because if performed by a specialist familiar with this procedure, they are likely to yield positive results.

Vaginal Tightening with Threads:

Vaginal lift with threads is one of the non-invasive methods used for vaginal tightening. In this method, there is no need for anesthesia since there is no bleeding, and the threads used are automatically absorbed by the body after 10 to 12 days. Therefore, if you are concerned about residual effects of surgery, you can opt for this method. However, remember that you should not engage in sexual intercourse for 6 weeks if you choose this method.

Perineoplasty Surgery

As mentioned, one of the reasons for vaginal looseness is natural childbirth. When natural childbirth occurs, the perineum, one of the tissues of the female genital area, is likely to tear and, at best, stretch considerably. Therefore, through this surgical procedure, which is sometimes performed during childbirth, the damaged tissue is repaired. The most important point to consider regarding this treatment method is that you can see the final result after several months. Similar to the previous method, this method also has its own side effects, some of which include:

Bleeding
Abnormal vaginal discharge
Inflammation or infection
Dizziness and nausea
Residual scarring (although if your doctor is experienced and skilled, they can largely prevent scarring by performing small incisions.)
Vaginal tightening using laser

One of the uses of laser technology is to eliminate darkness in the genital area of women and tighten the vagina. In this method, which uses CO2 or MonaLisa Touch lasers, an attempt is made to alleviate vaginal looseness without the need for anesthesia and bleeding. Some advantages of using this method include:

Production of new collagen
Long-lasting effects (considered as one of the permanent vaginal tightening methods)
Much lower cost than surgery
No need for hospitalization
Relief from burning and itching in the genital area
Elimination of uterine prolapse
Reduction in urinary incontinence symptoms
Immediate observation of the final result after the procedure

The most important tasks to do before undergoing any of the aforementioned medical methods include:

Pap smear test
Treatment of various fungal infections
Pregnancy test (if you are pregnant, you should never undergo this surgery)
Reporting potential allergies to various medications
Natural vaginal tightening methods at home

As mentioned, there are various methods for vaginal tightening. However, you can largely prevent vaginal looseness and delay this process by using natural methods that are also applicable at home. Therefore, whether you are currently experiencing this problem or not, it is better to use the methods introduced in this section at home.

Healthy Diet

Similar to any other medical issue, the first thing to consider for preventing this problem is to follow a healthy diet. You can supply your body with the necessary estrogen levels and prevent vaginal looseness by the type of food you consume. For example, some foods rich in this substance include eggplant, pomegranate, sesame seeds, soy, carrots, wheat bran, and ...

Hygiene Considerations

If you want to avoid various problems and diseases, it's better to prioritize cleanliness! The genital area is one of the most important parts of a woman's body that unfortunately is still overlooked by many women. Keep in mind that many infections enter women's bodies through this area. So it's better to use appropriate cleansing materials, cotton underwear, and other hygiene-related issues regularly and daily.

Exercise Techniques

One of the natural methods of vaginal tightening at home is to perform some simple exercise techniques. By doing them, you can significantly strengthen your pelvic and vaginal muscles and prevent them from loosening. For example, activities like yoga, Kegel exercises, squats, pelvic stretches, Ben Wa balls, vaginal cones, and ...

Use of Homemade Masks

For vaginal tightening through natural methods, you can also use some special masks containing various ingredients that even help brighten this part of the body. For example, using aloe vera gel, yogurt, garlic, vinegar, lemon, witch hazel, and ...
