GYN: Vaginal Stenosis after repairs

35 YO P2002 who underwent an A and P repair, and urinary sling has a posterior stenotic band around 4 cm in, such that intercourse is difficult. I can get one finger through it, and a Pederson speculum with difficulty, but can't open it too well without discomfort.

Does anyone have any experience actually using/obtaining dilators, or doing a lateral release surgically, or have any other suggestions?

Thanks,

Garry

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
