Pessary:
A pessary is a small plastic or silicone medical device which is inserted into the vagina or rectum and held in place by the pelvic floor musculature.
A therapeutic pessary is a medical device similar to the outer ring of a diaphragm. Therapeutic pessaries are used to support the uterus, vagina, bladder, or rectum. A pessary is most commonly used to treat prolapse of the uterus. The pessary can be placed temporarily or permanently, and must be fitted by a physician.
Most pessaries can be worn during intercourse. Pessaries should only be used in conjunction with vaginal estrogen, without it, these can cause chronic discharge and bleeding secondary to injury of the vaginal tissue.
