A pessary is a device inserted into the vagina to support the pelvic organs and treat conditions such as pelvic organ prolapse or urinary incontinence. The insertion process is relatively simple:
The pessary is lubricated with a water-based lubricant. It is folded and gently inserted into the vagina. The device is positioned to support the pelvic organs effectively.
Pessaries come in various shapes and sizes, and a healthcare provider will determine the most appropriate type for the patient.
