FAQ: plusOne® Vaginal Dilator Set

What is a vaginal dilator set used for?

A vaginal dilator set is a highly effective, therapeutic tool designed to gently stretch the vaginal canal and relax the pelvic floor muscles. It is commonly used by women experiencing vaginal tightness, discomfort during intercourse (dyspareunia), postpartum changes, or menopausal dryness. By allowing you to work at your own pace, it helps you regain comfort, confidence, and control over your intimate wellness.

How do the progressive sizes work?

The plusOne Dilator Set is uniquely designed to adapt to your body’s needs. Instead of five separate hard plastic wands, this set includes a primary vibrating handle and four incredibly soft, graduated silicone attachments (sleeves). You start by using the handle with the smallest sleeve (tapered from 0.45" to 0.6" in diameter). As your body relaxes and you become more comfortable, you can slowly graduate to the larger sleeves, up to the maximum 1" diameter size.

How do I change the different size attachments?

Swapping sizes is incredibly simple. Choose your desired size and simply slide the soft silicone sleeve directly over the main vibrating handle until it is snug and secure. We always recommend starting with the smallest attachment and only leveling up to the next size when you feel completely comfortable doing so.

Does the dilator set vibrate, and why does that help?

Yes! The primary handle features 10 unique vibration settings. While vibration is often associated with pleasure, in pelvic floor therapy, gentle vibrations actually help increase blood flow and encourage tense pelvic floor muscles to relax. This can significantly reduce discomfort during the dilation process.

How does the warming feature work?

Heat therapy is a proven way to soothe muscle tension! The plusOne dilator features a gentle warming function to make your experience more comfortable. Simply press and hold the heat button for 3 seconds to activate the warming setting. The gentle heat, combined with vibration, helps the vaginal muscles stretch and relax more easily.

What type of lubricant should I use with my dilators?

Using a generous amount of lubricant is essential for a comfortable dilation experience. Because all of the attachments are made from premium silicone, you should only use a high-quality water-based lubricant. Avoid silicone-based lubes, oils, or heavy lotions, as these will permanently damage the soft silicone material.

Is the plusOne Vaginal Dilator Set waterproof?

Yes, the entire set is 100% waterproof and fully submersible. Many women find that warm water helps relax their muscles naturally, making the bathtub or shower an ideal, stress-free environment to practice dilation. This waterproof design also makes cleanup incredibly easy.

How do I charge the handle, and how long does it last?

The dilator handle features a completely waterproof, magnetic USB charging system. Simply align the magnetic pins on the included cord with the metal contacts on the base of the handle. A full charge takes about 90 minutes and will provide up to 1.5 hours of continuous use.

Is the silicone material safe for highly sensitive bodies?

Absolutely. We know that if you are experiencing pelvic pain, body-safe materials are non-negotiable. The plusOne dilator attachments are crafted from ultra-hygienic, medical-grade silicone. They are hypoallergenic, completely non-porous, and strictly free from phthalates, BPA, and latex.

How should I clean and store my dilator set?

Hygiene is crucial for intimate wellness. Wash the handle and whichever silicone attachment you used with warm water and a mild, unscented antibacterial soap before and after every use. Let them air dry completely. The set includes a convenient storage bag. Just ensure your dilators aren't stored touching toys made of different materials to protect the soft silicone finish.
