For many women, menopause brings physical changes that are still not talked about openly enough. One of the most common and often taboo concerns is vaginal discomfort. Vagiwell® dilators offer gentle, hormone-free support to help women feel more comfortable in their own bodies again.
What happens to the vagina during menopause?
As oestrogen levels decline, the vaginal tissue may become thinner less elastic, and more sensitive. Common changes include:
- vaginal dryness
- burning or itching
- pain during sexual intercourse (dyspareunia)
- a feeling of tightness or involuntary muscle tension (e.g. vaginismus)
- increased susceptibility to infections
These symptoms are common - and you are not alone.

How to use Vagiwell® dilators
Gentle, regular practice is key:
- Clean the dilator with warm water and mild soap before use.
- Choose a comfortable position, such as lying on your back with knees bent.
- Apply a water-based lubricant (never silicone- or oil-based).
- Insert gently until slight pressure is felt. Hold for about 5 minutes, then slowly insert and remove a few times.
- Practice regularly - short daily sessions (5-10 minutes) are ideal.
- Progress gradually and move to the next size only when the current one feels comfortable.
- Clean after use and store dry.
If you are under medical or physiotherapeutic care, follow the individual guidance provided.
