If you're looking for a non-surgical option to manage your prolapse, then a pessary might be just for you. Don't miss this rapid-fire Q&A with physiotherapist Michelle Lyons! We discuss:

  • Importance of getting fitted and exploring different options/sizes
  • Are they really a long-term solution? Can they be used indefinitely?
  • Can they be used just during exercise?
  • How often do they need to be removed and cleaned?
  • How do you clean a pessary? 
  • Can you have sex with it in?
  • Differences between over the counter (i.e. ordering online, by yourself) pessaries vs prescription?
  • Are pessaries safe during pregnancy?
  • Are there any risks or dangers of long-term use?
  • Do they weaken or "overstretch" the tissues or cause any irritation?
  • Can products such as collagen supplementation, or red light therapy help with tissue health?
  • Does nutrition help with tissue health?
