Incostress

What is IncoStress?
Designed by women for women, IncoStress is a medical device designed to help control urinary stress incontinence in women. Other degrees of incontinence or bladder problems should be discussed with your doctor first.

It is neat petite and discreet. IncoStress is reusable, and is cleaned simply by washing in clean water. IncoStress is to be replaced by a new one each month. IncoStress is environmentally friendly, it is more economical than using incontinence pads, and could save the environment thousands of trees being used for such paper products.

Clinical trials were carried out at Singleton Hospital, South Wales, UK at the department of obstetrics and gynaecology. As a result a percentage of patients were removed from the waiting list for surgery, a percentage of patients are still using IncoStress with success. As with all new products IncoStress will need getting used to and will not suit everyone.

How it works
IncoStress is worn inside the vagina, it naturally places pressure against the urethra (the tube that allows loss of urine from the bladder) this gentle pressure controls the involuntary loss of urine by closing the urethra and restores the natural anatomical position of the bladder, thus, preventing stress incontinence. Its ergonomic shape could allow the pelvic floor muscles to be gently exercised, which over a period of time could strengthen the muscles. Regular pelvic floor exercises are always recommended, these may be carried out with IncoStress is in place.

What is it made from?
IncoStress® is made from a medical grade non- allergenic silicone, it holds CE0120 certification and is manufactured by C&G Medicare Ltd in the UK.
