Virtual Reality and Music for Ultrasound in Vaginismus
Treatments studied
Part of Mental health, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests whether using virtual reality (VR) and relaxing music during a transvaginal ultrasound can help reduce pain and anxiety for women with vaginismus. If it works, it might make the ultrasound experience easier and more comfortable.
