text: Kegel exercises are the main way to increase vaginal tone.  Gently tighten the muscles of your pelvic floor as if you were trying to stop the flow of urine or a bowel movement.  Hold for 5-10 seconds, then release.  Repeat 5 times, three times a day at first, then slowly increase the number.  \n\nThese exercises will also help reduce swelling and reduce the risk of complications later on, like urinary dribbling and incontinence.
