An incontinence ring pessary effectively manages stress urinary incontinence by employing several mechanisms given below:-
- It compresses the urethra against the pubic symphysis and elevates the bladder neck to increase resistance to urine outflow.
- It corrects the bladder-urethra angle, reducing leakage during physical strain, and extends urethral length with gentle compression.
- Provides structural support, this pessary is supported by pelvic bones, muscles, and the uterus. Pessaries for incontinence are inserted easily by a healthcare provider using lubrication or a numbing aid.
