Cube Pessary with Drains - ProFem

Treat Pelvic Organ Prolapse effectively

Cube Pessary with Drains

The cube pessary can relief the symptoms of a cystocele, a rectocele as well as a 2nd or 3rd degree uterine prolapse. The cube pessary adheres to the vaginal wall due to its surfaces.

How does the vaginal pessary work?

This particular vaginal pessary, shaped like a cube, creates negative pressure against the walls of the vagina. This allows it to remain stable while providing organ support and elevation.

What can a cube pessary treat?

Uterus prolapse

The uterus is supported by the combination of pelvic floor muscles, tissue and ligaments.
When these structures are too weak the uterus slips downwards from its natural anatomical position into the vaginal cavity.

Cystocele

A cystocele occurs when the bladder pushes into the vagina. Depending on the grade of prolapse this can be from a grade one where the bladder bulges into the vaginal wall to the most severe where the bulge appears through the entrance of the vagina.

Rectocele

A rectocele is a bulge in the front wall of the rectum into the rear wall of the vagina. If the rectal wall becomes thinned, the weakening of the wall often causes a bulge which can obstruct bowel movement.
