That Time of the Month: Vaginismus

Update: 2025-09-30

Description

Naga is joined by singer-songwriter Lucy Wroe to talk about vaginismus. It’s a condition which causes the vagina to suddenly tighten up when you try to insert something into it, for example using a tampon or having sex. It can be extremely painful and upsetting and it can impact your daily life and your mental health. Naga is also joined by Dr Nighat Arif and Dr Christine Ekechi to hear 5 Live listeners stories and answer their questions.
