Özet:
The intention of this clinical dissertation was to bring about a clearer understanding of the cultural and religious influences on vaginismus, to educate clinicians about the information gleaned from this clearer understanding, and thus to improve the ability to treat the disorder and help women suffering from it to engage in healthy sex lives. This clinical dissertation was also intended to bridge the informational gap between medical and psychological clinicians' understanding of the disorder in order to inform them on the diagnosis process, as well as resulting treatment. Reviewing the often-erroneous differential diagnoses of vaginismus -- along with the cultural, social, and religious influences it is in accordance with patients who experience the disorder -- the author interviewed five medical and mental health professionals who work with patients of vaginismus in order to compile data and search for commonalities in these regards. Results indicated that plans of treatment for patients of vaginismus must be tailored toward each individual, with all psychosocial aspects considered (including religious, cultural, and social beliefs; past traumas; sexual education and understanding; previously existing psychological influences and disorders; and socioeconomic background), and that patients with vaginismus would do well to seek help from both physical health professionals (e.g. OBGYNs) and mental health professionals (e.g. psychotherapists), as the disorder may be psychosomatic in nature.
