hymenectomy

Rachel
So I had to have a partial hymenectomy due to the hymen being too thick on June 2. I go to back to the doctor on Monday. I am dtill experiencing some discomfort and pretty sure my stitches have no dissolved. 
My husband and I have been unable to have sex at all in the 6 months we have been married (we both waited to have sex till marriage) due to the awful pain I was experiencing. My doctor mentioned using dialators after my check up to help stretch the vaginal walls and make sex more comfortable. I have done some researching, but I can't seem to figure out exactly what I need to get. There are so many different shapes and styles, Im incrediably confused and nervous. I have become very emotional about this whole experience and that isn't helping. 
Has anyone gone through a simular experience that would be willing to share what helped them?
