Migraines? depends. Anxiety-every day. dysmenorrhea-2/7 days of the red tide. Vaginismus? took years to diagnose and treat because no one believed me-finally went with a midwife and now good.

Did you used dilators to overcome Vaginismus? Are you now able to have pain free PIV or is/was still unsuccessful? How did they diagnose your Vaginismus, with tests? Did you have Vaginismus as a virgin? If so, were you trying PIV and weren't successful so sought help? If you were successful in first time PIV was still just as painful or not after treatment?
Dysmenorrhea - yes, since my periods started. Have a regime that makes it manageable now though.

Vaginismus - I did during an abusive relationship. Haven't tried anything that involved penetration since so don't know if still an issue.
