Where can I buy a vaginal dilator?

Your health care team will let you know about the types of dilators you can buy. They will let you know what size might be right for you.

To use the dilator you will need water soluble (dissolves in water) or water-based lubricant (lube) such as Muko or K-Y Jelly®. Try to buy your vaginal dilator and lubricant (lube) before you finish your radiation treatment.

Do not use Vaseline or other oil-based products as lubricant (lube). These products are not water soluble (do not dissolve in water) or water-based and may cause an infection and/or ruin silicone dilators.

You can buy a vaginal dilator or dilator kit (more than one) and water soluble (dissolves in water) or water-based lubricant (lube) online. Try searching these words:

  • Vaginal exerciser
  • Vaginal dilators
  • Silk
  • Tantus
  • Vaginal lubricant or vaginal lube

You can also buy a vaginal dilator and lubricant (lube) from places such as:
