Reduces bladder leaks
Reduces bladder leaks
Works for 4/5 women!
Preparation
a. Empty your bladder and wash your hands with soap and water.
b. Rinse the bladder support with water or use a water-based lubricant to make it easier to insert into the vagina.
c. Find a comfortable position, if you are standing it may help to bend your knees slightly.
Insertion and positioning
a. Grasp the handle and insert the bladder support: The bladder support should be inserted into the vagina at a slight upward angle, like a tampon. The support rings should pass the narrow vaginal passage and rest on the pelvic floor. The handle should rest tight to the perineum and be covered by the outer labia.
The long part of the handle should point backwards, but it doesn't matter if you get the front and back wrong, the round support rings makes the function is equally good no matter which way the bladder support is positioned!
b. Positioning: Pull the handle lightly, jump or move a bit. If the bladder support does not stay in place or does not reduce leakage, try a larger size or adjust the placement.
Keep in mind that a too small size can chafe both inside and outside - if you experience this, choose a larger size!
Removal
a. Before removal, it may be helpful to empty your bladder.
b. Find a comfortable position. If you find it hard to grip, try standing up with slightly bended knees or with one leg raised.
c. Pull the handle lightly and wiggle it slightly from side to side to remove the bladder support.
If the bladder support has shifted higher up in the vagina and you are having trouble reaching it, stay calm and follow the instructions. You can try to bring the support lower by gently bearing down. The bladder support cannot disappear into your body, and you will be able to remove it.
If you feel resistance or a sense of vacuum when trying to remove it, try to insert your finger next to the Efemia Bladder Support, pressing it to one side whilst wiggling it a little, so air can pass through and break the vacuum seal.
Cleaning after use
Clean the device using any of the following methods:
1. Rinse with water for immediate reuse.
2. Boil in water for 10 minutes and allow to air dry.
3. Cleanse with water and soap, preferably a soap for intimate use. Rinse thoroughly to remove all soap and allow to air dry.
FAQs
The Efemia Bladder Support is a vaginal insert designed to reduce urine leakage due to stress incontinence. It supports the mid-urethra through the vaginal wall, right where the urethra should bend under strenuous activity to prevent leaks. The device gives the urethra a little extra push just when pressure on the abdomen increases.
You can reuse the device as many times as you need up to 16 hours per day during the 3 month lifetime of the product.
Efemia Bladder Support is reusable and one bladder support is equivalent to 4 incontinence pads in terms of carbon footprint. Replacing incontinence pads with Efemia saves an average of 29kg of waste per year!
Find the right size
There are three sizes: 30 mm, 35 mm and 40 mm.
How do I know which size I should use?
Best thing to do is simply to try and see. Start with the smallest size and see if it works for you. If it doesn’t, go up a size. And, even if the smallest size does works for you, it might be an idea to try a larger size for comparison’s sake.
