Suggestion: try glass!

Hey vagina-havers! I just wanted to share a little bit of success I had. Full disclaimer, my vaginismus is overall moderate, and not usually severe. I can generally achieve penetration of smaller sizes but it ranges from burning and stinging to intense pain, whereas I know a lot of people with vaginismus can't have any penetration whatsoever.

With that said, I am doing well with smaller dialators and wanted to try something bigger. Everything I have is silicone, so I thought I'd give something else a try. I opted for a smallish glass dildo and oh my lord, the glass was SO much more comfortable for me than silicone!! I had so much more success with it than I thought I would and I'm just so, so happy. I would really recommend trying different materials and seeing how it feels. I know it's kind of a risk since sex toys are obviously not returnable but I'm glad I decided to experiment and try something else.

Tldr -- try glass!
