Amielle Comfort Vaginal Dilators Basic Pack

Amielle Comfort Vaginal Dilators are internationally recognised as the most user-friendly and best value vaginal dilators available for women suffering from vaginismus, vulvodynia, dyspareunia and related conditions.

Amielle Comfort vaginal dilators offer an effective way for women to take an active role in their treatment in the privacy and comfort of their own surroundings. Designed in conjunction with psychosexual therapists, Amielle Comfort vaginal dilators help women to familiarise themselves with their body and thus help to build their confidence at a pace that they decide suits them best.

With four graduated sizes available in the set, women are able to take control of their treatment until they feel able to progress to natural penetration.

Produced and distributed by a major British medical manufacturer, using medical grade plastics, they are a quality product that meets appropriate standards for vaginal use. Amielle Comfort Vaginal Dilators are widely recommended by clinicians and have been the subject of two studies that have found they are both effective and acceptable to women users (Smith [83kb pdf file], Murina).

We are now able to offer a basic version of the Amielle Comfort Vaginal Dilators at a price considerably below the normal retail price of the complete pack. We have dispensed with the cleaning brush and the packaging (a small washing up brush and a small cosmetics case are all you'll need to buy for yourself instead, or you may simply decide you don't need them). We've also dispensed with the instructional CD, since the included leaflet provides the basic instructions that most users need.

By opting to do without these accessories, we've been able to negotiate a much better price with the distributors, enabling us to pass savings onto women seeking to overcome vaginismus, vulvodynia and other conditions that benefit from the use of progressive vaginal dilators.

The Amielle Comfort Vaginal Dilators Basic Pack consists of 4 dilators and a handle which is interchangeable between them, plus the instruction leaflet. Dimensions of the dilators are:

Amielle Comfort dilator size 1: 9cm x 20mm (31/2" x 3/4")
Amielle Comfort dilator size 2 11cm x 25mm (41/4" x 1")
Amielle Comfort dilator size 3: 14cm x 30mm (51/2" x 11/4")
Amielle Comfort dilator size 4: 16cm x 35mm (61/4" x 11/2")

Amielle Comfort Vaginal Dilators Basic Pack are supplied in a sealed plastic bag. They are easily cleaned in soapy water, or Milton solution if preferred.

Basic user information is provided in the instruction leaflet. Women who need more guidance in using Amielle Comfort vaginal dilators for vaginismus, vulvodynia, dyspareunia or related conditions are encouraged to discuss their needs with their appropriate health professional.

Health professionals working in gynaecological oncology may also be interested in the Amielle Care range, which is specifically designed for use after radiotherapy and available from Point of Care Diagnostics.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the effectiveness of a specific set of vaginal dilators (Amielle Comfort) as a part of vestibulodynia therapy. STUDY DESIGN: Fifteen women referred for vestibulodynia, localized vulvodynia, were advised to use vaginal dilators (Amielle Comfort) accompanied by standardized instructions, after previously receiving 1 or more therapies for the vestibulodynia. RESULTS: The posttreatment Marinoff scale for dyspareunia significantly improved in patients after vaginal dilator treatment compared with baseline values (2.2 +/- 0.4 vs 1.1 +/- 0.9; P < .01), and the Female Sexual Function Index scores were significantly improved compared with the prestudy values (16.3 +/- 5.5 vs 25.3 +/- 7.5; P <.01). CONCLUSION: Among women with previous therapy for vestibulodynia, vaginal dilator use wasassociated with improvement in symptoms. Vaginal dilators can play an important role in overcoming pelvic floor muscular responses that remain and sometimes increase after pain perception has decreased.
