ProDry® vaginal tampon, 10 ST

ProDry® vaginal tampons are ideal for use in cases of bladder weakness. ProDry® supports the bladder neck so that the natural closure function of the urethra can be restored.

If urine is lost involuntarily during a hearty laugh, during physical exertion such as lifting and carrying, but also when climbing stairs, coughing, sneezing or doing sport, this is usually due to stress incontinence, the most common form of urinary incontinence (bladder weakness) in women. Bladder weakness can put a strain on everyday life and lead to a severe reduction in quality of life.

ProDry® - the small active protection that provides support in the right place to prevent leakage in the first place.

ProDry active protection looks and feels similar to a tampon, but has no absorbent function. Thanks to its elastic properties, ProDry exerts pressure on the front vaginal wall. This supports the bladder neck and restores the natural closure function of the urethra. A little active protection is all you need to be able to laugh, play sport and take part in life again.

How to use

Before use, ProDry is softened in warm water and then inserted into the vagina just like a normal tampon. ProDry should only be used if there is a risk of uncontrolled urine leakage. ProDry is not intended to absorb urine. ProDry can remain in the vagina during normal urination.

Inserting the ProDry® vaginal tampon:

• Before removing ProDry from the packaging, please wash your hands thoroughly.
• Moisten ProDry in warm water or under running water and knead until it is soft.
• Squeeze out the ProDry to remove excess water.
• Make sure that the retrieval cord is firmly knotted and that the knot is outside the body after insertion.
• To make insertion easier if the vagina is dry, the moistened ProDry can be made more slippery with a gel.
• Hold the labia apart with one hand. Take ProDry with the other hand and insert it into the vagina with the rounded side first.
• Push ProDry, just like a normal tampon, with your fingertips as far back and up into the vagina as possible. The end of the return ligament with the knot must lie outside the body.
• There are only a few nerves in the centre of the vagina, so you will not feel ProDry if it is positioned correctly.
• If you feel any discomfort after insertion, use your fingertips to move ProDry into the correct position.
  

Removing the ProDry® vaginal tampons:

• Assume the same comfortable position as when inserting the ProDry.
• Remove ProDry by pulling on the knot of the retrieval cord. The best pulling direction is easy to find out by trial and error.
• Put the used ProDry in a bag and dispose of it in the waste. Do not throw it in the toilet.
• Wash your hands after removing and disposing of ProDry.
