Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
Vaginismus is a condition characterized by involuntary contractions of the pelvic floor muscles that surround the vagina, making penetration painful or impossible. The use of dilators in a nondemand manner is a common treatment approach to gradually desensitize the vaginal muscles, allowing for more comfortable penetration.
