If you are experiencing any degree of prolapse, you may likely be a pessary candidate.
Previously believed to be only for "older women", these medical grade silicone devices are inserted to give support to the walls of the vagina.
In this interview, Trish Brunell (a pelvic floor physical therapist who fits pessaries) answers common questions:
-What do pessaries look like?
-Who is most likely a candidate?
-How early postpartum can they be fit?
-Can I wear them for just my sports/activities?
-Who do I have to see to get one?
-How do I clean it?
-Are there any risks?
