ABSTRACT:
The adjustable variable length vaginal dilator is assembled from selected parts of parts of various length so as to achieve a selected desired length, and at least two of the parts are threaded. The distal threaded joint secures a selected length tip and the proximal adjustable threaded base provides infinite length adjustments between the main body coupler and the base. An intermediate extender may also be used for added length. The dilator permits self-treatment sessions over a long period of time that permits slow small interval stretching with maximum patient comfort. Another embodiment provides a tapered transition section and a tip of smaller diameter which is also of selectable length for more comfort during therapy and the like.
