Hi ladies. Immediately post-procedure, I found the use of a vibrator to be helpful to relax me that much more while dilating. Thereafter, as we progressed in love-making, we have incorporated both the Candy Stick and Lelo Liv vibrators and both enjoy these greatly. For the longest time, I always felt like I had to dilate in advance of intercourse. By using these vibrators, I still feel like I receive the benefit of dilating for a bit and it also is so, so fun to experience with my hubby. I would definitely recommend both the Lelo Liv and Candy Stick to future patients. For those recently treated, have you also purchased a vibrator? Have you found it helpful to use with dilation? Your feedback would be very helpful for future patients considering purchasing one. :):):)
