New vaginal device aims to stop leaks, but study stalls

NCT ID NCT05611970

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This study tested a reusable vaginal pessary device to help women with stress urinary incontinence (leaking urine when coughing, sneezing, or exercising). Each woman acted as her own control, comparing leak amounts with and without the device. The study was terminated early and only included 7 participants, so the results are not reliable.
