Accidentally touching my cervix?

A couple of months ago, I found out that I have vaginismus and have been seeing a therapist and have been trying excersizes (sticking the finger in) and I get to a certain point (circa 3 inches in) where it feels like I'm entering a new smaller hole which is apparently the cervix.

I'm not seeing my therapist for the next month because of finals week and just overall a hectic schedule these next couple of weeks, but I have to continue my excersizes.

So my question is: theres only one hole that my finger is supposed to go in, and I'm apparently touching my cervix, is there a way to continue my dialtaing excersizes without aggravating my cervix? and if theres a different route to making the dialators go in further, what is it?

Honestly? Unless your fingers are really dirty and you're scratching your cervix enough to make it bleed, you'll be ok. The opening of your cervix shouldn't ever be big enough (unless you're in labor) to put your finger into, even the very tip. You should be able to feel the opening but not put your finger in it. It's entirely possible for your cervix to be that far down, everyone's anatomy is different, and depending on how fertile you are, your cervix can be low or high in the vagina. Regular cervical checking is one way to determine your fertility if you're trying (or not trying) to get pregnant. There's nothing wrong with touching it. You should see a gynecologist for a check up though, and see what's normal for your body before you start to panic. Don't listen to any of those other posters, they have NO idea what they're talking about. If you don't believe me, go to babycenter.com and check out the pages on "how to get pregnant" and you'll be able to read all about what physical signs tell you whether or not you're fertile. Cervical position and opening size is one of them.

Why not leave this up to your health care professional. I for one think that this is just too personal.

Go Sox......red sox.

So your prego right? I don't think your therapist should be telling you that stuff. You should see a Gyno right now...they are the only people who can help you...

i m very sorry

Could you be entering your Ureter going towards your bladder?
I can't believe your Cervix is only 3 inches away from your labia.

Alternatively could the vaginal wall be tighter and going into spasm 3 inches in rather than from the entry point giving the feeling of entering a smaller hole?

Use a different angle, the cervix is only on one side, you can angle the finger to the front and miss it completely.

I suggest that you do not try to force the dialators in. If you are getting to your cervix than that is far enough. You can keep doing the exercises but do not put it in the cervix. Just practice up to the depth of the cervix and ask your therapist when you see him/her next.

i would seyour doc andno shes not pregnant starpown

im very sorry, (most these answers are completely ridiculus) go to the obgyn....

wow...

If you are going 3 inches into your vagina then you should not be touching your cervix. You should really go to an OB-GYN ASAP! Seriously. A therapist should never be telling you to do these things. If he/she is not a medical physician then they should refer you to one.
Seriously though, on average a vagina is 5-6 inched deep. Your cervix should not be touched and especially entered. This is just strange. Please do to a physician before there is some kind of damage done.
Sorry that you are going through this. Good luck!

I found this through a wikipedia search about vaginismus:

Physical treatment of the internal spasms may include sensate focus exercises, exploring the vagina through touch, and desensitization with vaginal dilators. Dilating involves inserting objects, usually phallic in shape, into the vagina. In treating the spasms through dilation, the objects used gradually increase in size as the woman progresses. Medical dilators may be obtained online, though they may be expensive.
So it's ok to be doing the excercises. As far as going into the cervix, you need to be very careful because you can insert bacteria in the cervix and create an infection...you don't want to add to the crisis! No you are not entering the urethra!!!! Goodness!!! You might be able to feel the cervix and bump into it, but no, do not touch the little hole...
