The invention concerns a method of promoting regeneration of vaginal tissue, comprising providing a patient having a vagina in need of vaginal tissue regeneration, vaginal lubricant, and a vaginal regeneration devise comprising: a shaft having a first end and a second end, a tapered insertion at said first end of said shaft and an end cap at said second end of the shaft, and a vibrating mechanism within the shaft; lubricating the vagina; inserting the regeneration device into the patient's vagina; activating said vibrating mechanism and allowing the vibrations to contact the vaginal wall for a therapeutic period of time. The invention further concerns a vaginal regeneration device, comprising: a shaft having a first end, a second end, and a diameter of less than 23 mm along the majority of its length, a tapered insertion at said first end of the shaft and an end cap at said second end of the shaft, and a vibrating mechanism within the shaft, wherein said vibrating mechanism produces vibrations in the range of 500-7,000 rpm. The invention further concerns kits for promoting regeneration of vaginal tissue comprising at least two vaginal regeneration devices having different diameters along the majority of the length of the shaft.
