A ring pessary, specifically an incontinence ring, is typically not noticeable to a partner during intimacy if it’s correctly sized and properly positioned. However, if the incontinence pessary causes discomfort or is intrusive, you or your partner might detect it. In such cases, you can learn to insert and remove the pessary yourself, allowing you to take it out before sexual activity and reinsert it afterward. A urogynaecology specialist nurse can guide you through this process, ensuring you feel confident and comfortable with its use. Regular follow-ups will help to address any concerns and ensure the pessary is effectively managing incontinence.
