I am 7 month post op, I have not done well with dilation and now can just get a finger in a couple of inches, Is it possible to recover with an aggressive dilation schedule, and is there any risk of leaving it tight, I am not able to travel for another surgery as I have been laid off and lost my insurance so I would like to try to get it back to 1 inch girth and 4 or 5 inch depth it really stings of I try to push to hard. so I was wondering if anyone else may have had set backs post surgery that effected their size and depth
thank you

My case is a bit different because I went years before I missed dilation. The first step would be to have an internal examination to ensure you have no healing issues. If you are fully healed, I would think 3-4 times a day for 15-20 minutes switching dilators only when you are ready would be the approach. There were times when I first started dilating that it was uncomfortable but the years of constant dilation allow me to take 1.5 inches in diameter and about 5.5 inches in length.
I'm reasonably sure that you can recover some depth and width, but it will take a lot of disciplined effort on your part and the willingness to endure significant pain to achieve results. If you are looking for a simple, painless way to undo your body's attempt to heal itself, you are going to be disappointed. Any determined effort to reverse the contraction of scar tissue will be helpful to you, even if at some point in the future you undergo additional surgery to attain a fully functional vagina.
