    Rachael, Your post brought tears to my eyes as I read it. I am so happy for you and thank you very much for posting in so much detail. This is such a big achievement for you! Congratulations. Your commentary will help so many other women dealing with the pain and anxiety of the #5 and the #6. Vibrators are a wonderful and pleasurable tool in helping women with vaginismus dilate and as an added bonus to achieve an orgasm. Thank you for taking the time to post!

    Rachael, I have to agree with your post! 🙂 I have just a regular old vibrator that my husband and I got years ago, and when I was struggling with the #5 and *especially* with the #6, I used the vibrator and had the same experience. It immediately helped everything relax and all the sharp pains and discomfort I had been having went away. It was nice to know that it could be in there without pain, and same as what you mentioned, so refreshing to see that something could actually feel good while it was inserted. I think a lot of this (post procedure) really is about re-programming our minds after suffering SO long with such horrible pain and discomfort. Thanks for sharing your post, I am sure it will be an encouragement and help to many others! 🙂

    It is my patients who taught me about the benefits of using a vibrator before and during dilation. It aids in relaxing, and an orgasm is even more relaxing. I am delighted that the vibrator actually also reduced the pain of dilation which will be of great value to our many patients who are in the various stages of dilation.

    Rachael, thank you so much for sharing. I’m going to order one ASAP! I have the Lelo but for some reason I’m not comfortable using it internally. Looking at the Tango looks much more doable. Thanks again for sharing!
