I have seen my wife get fitted three times. When we went back to get refitted both of those doctors acted like it was strange to get refitted. But we read—I think in ‘Our Bodies Ourselves”--that you should get refitted every few years to be sure it fits right. And I love any time she is manhandled by a doctor, so I encouraged her to go again.
The first time was with her family doctor. She was 19 and she first saw him when she was 13. She had always had a crush on him, but after our first visit to him together she hated him. But that is a different story, and he was her doctor so we went to him.
First he put two fingers in her to measure against his fingers how deep her vagina was. That really hurt her. She has a really small vagina and he just shoved two fingers deep into her. He used plenty of lube, so they slid right in, but still she is very small, so even though they slid right in, it still hurt as they stretched her so wide.
Then he measured on his hand and picked out a size from the fitting tray.
Next was super hot. He used one hand to spread her lips wide then he shoved the folded diaphragm into her vagina. Then he poked around a lot, presumably to make sure the fit was right. I loved that. she squirmed and tried to pull away. she hated it. it was awesome.
Then he said, “That's about as good as they get.”
He said he would go get one, and he left the room for a minute. I immediately jumped up and put a finger in her as she sat on the end of the exam table.
She jumped like it hurt and she pushed me away with an angry look on her face.
The doctor came back in with a new diaphragm in her size and he put lube on it and then explained how to put spermicide on and how to insert it. Then he brought the back of the table up to about 45 degrees and had her sit sorta up while he put it back in.
he explained how to feel to make sure it is seated properly and then he explained how to get it out. Then he made her watch him as he rammed his big fingers back in her and pulled the diaphragm out.
Then he watched as she put it in. After she said she thought it was in the right place as she fingered herself, he put his fingers back in to check the placement.
Then he watched her try to fish it out. That took some time.
Then he said, “it just takes some practice. Do you want to do it another time or just practice when you get home.”
I wanted to shout, “do it again, do it again!”
but she said no so we were done.
Except I fingered her some more while she was getting dressed.
And man, she was loaded with lube.
