NCT ID NCT06246721
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 176 women with pelvic organ prolapse to see if they were willing and able to manage their own vaginal pessary at home. Researchers asked about attitudes and tracked how many successfully learned to insert and remove the device. The goal is to understand what helps or hinders self-management.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could help women with pelvic organ prolapse manage their own care at home, reducing clinic visits.
What could go wrong
