Coherencia sistémica e identitaria en mujeres con vaginismo primario

Vaginismus is female sexual dysfunction that generates big impact on the relationship. The present article seeks to describe, from the post-rationalist cognitive psychology, those identity and personality characteristics observed in 50 women diagnosed with primary vaginismus without history of physical or gynecological disorders and a history of life without trauma or sexual abuse. According to observations, it is women with a positive view of themselves, which are oriented towards control between two typically conflicting requirements, that of being protected and to feel free and independent. Therefore tend to focus on the regulation of the distance between rapprochement and estrangement from others, overcontrolling their emotions. So, vaginismus constitute a form in which the intrusion is limited and constrained by the other, while avoiding dependence thereof, and exercised control over emotional engagement through full delivery not herself during intercourse.
