INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
I.PLACEMENT:
a.Fold your Ring Pessary in half like a “Taco Shell”
i.There will likely be two “notches” or “holes” on the sides, which will make it easier to fold in one direction than the other
ii.These “notches” or “holes” should be at the “ends” of the “Taco” (not the middle)
b.Wedge the middle of your now-folded Ring Pessary into the upside-down “U” side of the PessaryAssistant (See Picture)
c.Use one hand to hold the PessaryAssistant + now-folded Ring Pessary close to the vaginal opening
i.Place a small amount of lubrication on insertion end
d.Use your other hand (or smaller fingers of same hand) to push the now-folded Ring Pessary into the vagina
e.Use one finger to push the now-sprung-open Ring Pessary all the way inside
f.If you use a RingPessary “with support” (i.e., with inner diaphragm rather than wide open hole), try to orient one of the large “holes” so it is closest to the vaginal opening (See Picture Below). This will help in the future during removal.
II.REMOVAL:
a.Place one finger inside the vagina to locate the rim of your Ring Pessary, as well as one of the two larger holes in the diaphragm if you have one (See Picture at Right)
b.Use your inserted finger to guide the “hook” side of the PessaryAssistant inside the vagina (open-end of “hook” may be pointed up or down, depending on what feels more appropriate given your pessary’s resting position)
c.Manipulate the handle of the PessaryAssistant until you have hooked your RingPessary (upward or downward)
i.If using a RingPessary “with support”, the “hook” will go through one of the “holes” in the diaphragm (See Picture at Right)
d.Use the PessaryAssistant to pull out your Ring Pessary, while using your other hand to try to “fold” your Ring Pessary as it comes out
i.This will decrease the tenderness involved with passing it through the vaginal opening (especially if you have a larger-sized pessary)
