This is a randomized control trial aimed to decreased radiation-induced vaginal stenosis in patients with endometrial or cervical cancer treated with post-operative external beam radiation therapy with or without brachytherapy. The intervention is an enhanced vaginal dilator model, including a silicone band placed at the desired depth of dilator insertion. The new model will be compared against the traditional vaginal dilator model used as our institutional standard of care. We hypothesize the enhanced model will improve adherence, correct use and efficacy of vaginal dilator use.
