Vaginal Pessary

Vaginal Pessary is a non-surgical treatment option for uterine prolapse that provides support to the uterus and helps alleviate symptoms. It is a removable device that is inserted into the vagina to support the prolapsed uterus and keep it in its proper position. Vaginal pessaries are available in different shapes, sizes, and materials to accommodate individual anatomical variations and personal preferences.

During a consultation at MASSH, our experienced healthcare providers will assess your condition and determine if a vaginal pessary is suitable for you. If it is deemed appropriate, the healthcare provider will guide you through the process of selecting the right type of pessary that fits comfortably and provides effective support. The insertion of a vaginal pessary is a simple and relatively painless procedure. The pessary is inserted into the vagina and positioned to support the uterus. It works by redistributing the weight of the uterus and providing additional support to the pelvic structures, relieving the symptoms associated with uterine prolapse. The healthcare provider will ensure that the pessary is properly fitted and positioned to optimise its effectiveness.

One of the key benefits of using a vaginal pessary is that it is a non-surgical, conservative approach to managing uterine prolapse. It offers a safe and reversible option for women who wish to avoid surgery or who are not suitable candidates for surgical intervention. Vaginal pessaries can effectively alleviate symptoms such as pelvic pressure, discomfort, and urinary issues associated with uterine prolapse, improving your quality of life.

Regular follow-up appointments with your healthcare provider are necessary to monitor the effectiveness of the pessary and make any necessary adjustments. The pessary should be cleaned regularly and removed periodically for cleaning and examination by your healthcare provider. They will also assess your symptoms and overall well-being to ensure that the pessary continues to provide the desired support. Vaginal pessaries may not be suitable for all individuals or all types of uterine prolapse. Your healthcare provider will carefully evaluate your specific condition and discuss the benefits, risks, and limitations of using a pessary in your particular case. They will also provide guidance on proper insertion, removal, and care of the pessary.
