Episode description
Author: Jared Scott, M.D.
Educational Pearls:
- A pessary is a device inserted into the vagina for medical purposes. Examples include birth control and mechanical support of the pelvic structures.
- In older women, collapse of the pelvic structures is common, and many may have pessaries to aid in treatment.
