Pessary Clinic
The symptoms of prolapse can be exhausting and go so far beyond the physical.
A pessary is a silicone device that fits into the vagina to help reduce the symptoms of your prolapse and improve your quality of life.
Symptoms of a prolapse include:
- backache
- lower abdominal pain
- the sensation of a bulge that can be seen or felt inside the vagina
- a feeling of heaviness or dragging in the vagina or pelvis
- the sensation that a tampon is falling out
Management strategies for prolapse include: optimising the pelvic floor muscles, strengthening the wider supporting muscles, reducing risk factors such as constipation and adapting movement strategies to reduce symptoms.
For some women, prolapse symptoms do not improve enough with these management strategies. These women may benefit from a pessary.
The benefits of a pessary include:
- it is a safe and effective treatment for the symptoms of prolapse
- it is a non-surgical, non-invasive treatment and can be fitted with minimal discomfort
- relief can be felt almost immediately, and the results can be life-changing
Prior to fitting you with a pessary, one of our specially trained team will conduct a full pelvic floor assessment. This allows us to determine if a pessary would be suitable for you, and which type should be used.
As with any treatment, individual results vary and you may need to try more than one pessary before we find the one that is right for you.
