A vaginal dilator, sometimes called a vaginal trainer, vaginal stent or vaginal expander, is an instrument used to gently stretch the vagina. They are used when the vagina has become narrowed (vaginal stenosis), such as after brachytherapy for gynecologic cancers, as therapy for vaginismus and other forms of dyspareunia, and to maintain the neovaginal canal following gender-affirming surgery.
