    Vaginal issues after birth
    I have a baby over s and a half years now and my vagina is not the same since , I produce way more fluid and the tightness is just not there. Is there a procedure that I can do to fix this?

    How do you know the tightness is not there? Have you done Kegels (exercises)?

    Kegel exercises: A how-to guide for women - MayoClinic.com

    That will restore your muscle tone if done correctly.

    Perhaps it's not you being looser, but your partner who is smaller. Is he saying, "Now that you've had a baby...."? The vagina goes back to its normal size after a baby has been born, and Kegels done faithfully have a great reputation of making vaginal muscles stronger.

    Well its not just him because I am conscious of it as well and that's why it's a concern for me and I really want to change that. Sigh :-(

    Look at it from this perspective... I'm a guy telling you this remember.

    Tight is good for a short quick sprint if that's all you want... but if you want to run a marathon, you need a little wiggle room.

    In other words... don't obsess about it. Do it to make yourself happy... he's going to be happy any way around it.

    LOL... I get what your saying I don't want a vagina that's like a virgin but at least a little effort to enter . And it makes it harder on me because I produce a lot of fluid sigh I guess I am just uncomfortable.

    I think a lot of women put way too much emphasis on that one thing... when to a guy as long as you can't park a mobile home in it.. we are happy as clams.

    And if you get to that point figuratively of course... there is likely other physical issues at play... which a gynecologist would be best suited to recommend. Some of them well beyond what Kegels could help.
