Description
If you're one of the millions of women with stress incontinence try Contrelle Activguard!
Inserted into the vagina, Contrelle Activguard gives back the bladder control you once had, allowing you to confidently lead a full and active life.
Contrelle Activgard is an innovative way to alleviate the symptoms of stress incontinence. When the pelvic floor has weakened, there is a slight fall to the bladder. The angle of the neck of the bladder alters meaning that the pelvic floor muscles are no longer as efficient when put under sudden stress like coughing, sneezing, laughing or even exercise.
Contrelle Activgard has been designed so that when placed into the vagina it lifts the bladder to correct the angle of the neck of the bladder and prevent or reduce leaks. And the great thing about Contrelle Activgard is you can still urinate normally without having to remove the Contrelle Activgard.
This pessary is made from soft, moulded foam plastic which, when insertedv unfolds to give the bladder a gentle support. It's as easy to use as a tampon and cannot be felt or seen. Some women may experience a little discomfort at first but this is not unusual nor likely to be permanent.
Contrelle Activgard is safe and comfortable to use and is designed not to absorb the natural moisture of the vaginal mucosa which can cause dryness, imbalance or infections.
This handy product can be used during exercise and is for singular use only. Each pack contains 30 insertables and is available in three sizes; we recommend you start with the smallest until you find the size that feels most comfortable. You may wish to try the Starter Pack which contains one of each size to find the correct one for you.

- Don't go for surgery! Review by D
-
I have tried lots of products and have found the Contrelle Activgard Pessary the best. I play a lot of sport and found that near to my period I experienced terrible leakage when running fast, jumping and changing direction quickly. I am a size 12 and after buying the sample pack settled on the medium size (2). It is easy to insert and remove. I have been using them for only a month so have not yet stopped wearing a liner but if the dryness continues I will give it a go. I went to a NHS consultant who was willing to operate but as I only experienced leakage during sport I thought that was a bit drastic. I was shocked at how little knowledge the NHS Women's Health Nurse knew about what was available, apart from surgery. I am very pleased that I persevered and found this product. It was very difficult to find and with only 3 reviews it was a gamble. That is the reason I am writing a review. It is an awful problem and I want to help others.Product Rating
Dear D - THANK YOU! Reviews like this will help other women with their choices, please also make sure you do your kegel exercises! [email protected] (Posted on 26 August 2013)
- Easy to use Review by Josie K
-
I have used these for several years now. I pop one in after my shower in the morning and it stays in place all day. One box lasts me over a month (i don't use them at weekends when I am at home only usually for work).Product Rating
I was recommended them by my sister in law who is Danish, her Physio swears by them. I read up on operations and surgical procedures but decided to try and sort the problem myself rather than resorting to surgery. So glad I did after the recent scares abut TVT mesh, it so easily could have been me. (Posted on 25 October 2012)
- Good product Review by Erin
-
After trying several other products, all of which were too large, I finally tried Contrelle. The smallest size is perfect and does exactly what it's meant to. After a decade of wearing lightweight liners I still haven't felt quite brave enough to dispense with them altogether, but I'm hopeful that once I'm completely confident in them that I will. I actually went on a trampoline for the first time for years and found that it was completely without incident, which felt utterly liberating. So overall, a really fantastic product. The price is slightly painful, but the result seems worth it. (Posted on 2 August 2013)Product Rating
- Work well - why not VAT free as standard? Review by Jen
-
These work well for me, although daily use and the waste involved doesn't rest easy on me but they do stop leaks and accidents and help to support my prolapse (Grade 1)Product Rating
I do think though that they should automatically not carry VAT because they are mostly - I presume for women with an existing medical condition - they look very expensive with VAT.
Dear Jen
Thank you for your feedback, we too love Contrelle Pessaries, they are a great option for many women giving support and confidence when needed. We have to display the VAT price because these are not only available VAT free to those who qualify living in the UK. We urge as many UK buyer as possible to purchase free from VAT if they qualify. Sadly our German and French buyers have to pay the VAT I am afraid.
Hope that helps

These were recommended to me by a Women's Physio. I only use them for running but have found them excellent. They are easy to use and effective, the only downside is how expensive they are. (Posted on 3 June 2013)Product Rating

- sizing is essential, then they work brilliantly Review by Miffy7
-
Foolishly I didn't try the starter pack first, I bought the wrong size and was left with a near-full box that is useless because they fall out. So sizing is essential, then they work brilliantly, but if you have not used them before, or don't know for sure what size you need, then get the Contrelle Starter pack because you try all 3 sizes. Better to waste one of the starter pack, rather than a full pack at £90 ;(Product Rating
Lesson learned. They are brilliant though, should be on the NHS (Posted on 5 May 2016)
- Best on Market Review by Rene
-
I have tried surgery and just about every product on the market including the new US incontinence tampons. No incontinence product compares to Contrelle as far as effectiveness, comfort, ability to wear for many hours and ease and comfort of insertion.Product Rating
It is pricey, especially with shipment charges to US, and the large size seems to be a challenge to find lately.
I would love for the product to be marketed in the US.
