Vaginal Pessary

A vaginal pessary is a medical device inserted into the vagina to support pelvic organs, often used for conditions like pelvic organ prolapse or urinary incontinence. It comes in various shapes and sizes, tailored to fit individual needs. The pessary helps keep the organs in place, providing relief from symptoms such as discomfort or pressure. Patients usually need guidance from a healthcare provider on how to insert, remove, and care for the pessary, as it requires regular cleaning and sometimes repositioning. It is a non-surgical option that can improve quality of life for many women.
