According to Linnéa Engman, a licensed psychologist and doctoral student, recurrent abdominal pain is much more common than one might imagine. The subject touches and she got many questions when she chatted with viewers.

Among other things, she was asked how to talk to her partner about abdominal pain.

- It can feel difficult and sometimes impossible, says Linnéa Engman.

She recommends that the partner read about the subject so that you do not have to explain yourself, or to talk to anyone outside, such as at a youth reception or family counseling.

Vestibulite may disappear - but it is unclear why

One question was about why the vestibule disappeared after three deliveries. According to Linnéa Engman, it is difficult to answer, there is research that confirms this, but not enough research to answer why.

- A possible hypothesis as to why is that the pelvic floor muscles change in structure and composition at birth.

Linnéa Engman also gave tips on what to do if you have not been listened to by the care.

- If you are under 23, turn to your youth clinic, but it may vary by region, or the nearest women's clinic.

There is always help to get

Linnéa Engman points out that there is usually help to get and that abdominal pain is not something you have to live with, even if it is not always symptom-free.

- But the symptoms can be relieved and the pain can be managed in other ways.
