But then when I started back with chemo, it was somewhat tricky for me to be on a schedule with the dilator use. Long story short. After chemo and my ileosotmy reversal, I am now using the dialtors at least 3 days a week. Originally when I used them in March, it was ok, no pain. Now when I use them, there is still no pain, just awkward. But now I have small traces of blood each time. It isnt heavy and I do not continue bleeding after using them. I am wondering if this is normal. I am assuming so as I have read some do. These dilators are hard plastic. Has anyone who have used vaginal dilators, switched to a dilator a little more soft or other? Just curious on your thoughts. I know it is an awkward topic, but just trying to figure out options if any.
