Post-Surgery Intimacy: Seeking Advice on Comfort and Adjustment

This topic is about a woman who has recently undergone rectum removal surgery and is experiencing some challenges with resuming sexual activity. After the surgery, she noticed that her vagina feels tighter and has a "bumpy" sensation during intercourse, which is slightly painful and oversensitive for her husband. She is looking for ways to make penetration more comfortable and is curious about potential solutions.

Here are some suggestions and insights that might help:

1. Gradual stretching with sex toys: Consider using dildos or vibrators in gradually increasing sizes. This can help gently widen the vaginal canal and reduce sensitivity. Make sure to use plenty of lubrication and practice this several times a week.

2. Medical-grade vaginal dilators: These are specially designed tools that can help with vaginal stretching. They are often used for conditions like post-menopausal narrowing, post-radiation therapy, or vaginismus. You can find sets of these dilators online by searching for "vaginal dilators." They work in a similar graduated manner to sex toys.

The woman is already using lubrication, so that is not a concern. She is also interested in understanding if the changes in her vaginal structure are permanent and whether there are more sophisticated or medical solutions available.
