Day 0 - SurgeryDay 13 - Catheter and packing removedDay 14 - First dilation with CalExotics 2nd smallest dilator (1" diameter)
Photos have been captioned with progress. I am worried about losing depth, however today I've returned to 2x dilation per day and I feel like I can make this work... I have approx 10cm depth currently, down from a depth of 16cm at time of surgery (according to the surgeon). I am determined to get back to at least 12.5cm and ideally to 15cm.
One thought I have is that I'm not sure if I'm hitting the end of the vaginal canal or if the secondary scarring ring is tight and preventing me from progressing further (I had PPV, so there is a join at the vaginal introitus between the external skin and the penile skin used for the introitus, and then another join between the penile skin and the peritoneal flaps). Does anyone have any recommendations for a narrow tool to insert to check for depth?
Day 14 - First dilation. Near full depth insertion of CalExotics 1\" dilator
Day 15 - full depth insertion of CalExotics 1\"
Day 16 - full depth insertion of CalExotics 1\" - travelled home (5-6 hrs, mostly seated)
Day 17 - Insertion of Soul Source P1 to 3rd dot
Day 18 - Insertion of P1 to 2nd-3rd dot. Achieved similar depth with P2.
Day 19 (eve) - Insertion of P1 to 2nd-3rd dot
Day 21 - P1 inserted to 4th dot, at best. Worrying about loss of depth
Day 23 - Insertion of P1 to 1st dot.
