Mediplus offers the MILEX® range of pessaries including: Ring (with support & knob), Shaatz, Gellhorn, Donut, Cube, Dish (with support), Gehrung (with knob) which are devices designed to manage pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and urinary incontinence.
Developed in collaboration with clinicians, these pessaries provide non-surgical solutions that enhance the quality of life for patients by alleviating the symptoms associated with prolapse and incontinence. The MILEX® pessaries are crafted from high-quality medical-grade silicone, ensuring safety, durability, and comfort.
Symptom Management: MILEX® pessaries are designed to alleviate the impact of pelvic organ prolapse and urinary incontinence on daily activities.
Soft and Malleable: Made from 100% medical-grade silicone, these pessaries are soft and flexible, ensuring ease of fitting and removal. This makes them user-friendly for both clinicians and patients.
Low Risk of Erosion: The softness of the silicone material reduces the risk of vaginal erosion, a common issue with harder pessaries. This feature enhances patient safety and comfort during prolonged use.
Non-Surgical Option: MILEX® pessaries provide a low-cost alternative to surgical interventions, offering a conservative treatment option that is accessible and effective for managing prolapse and incontinence.
Clinician and Patient Consultation: The design of MILEX® pessaries is the result of extensive consultations with healthcare professionals and patients, ensuring they meet the practical needs and comfort requirements of users.
Variety of Styles and Sizes: MILEX® offers over 16 different styles and multiple sizes, including rings, donuts, and Gellhorn designs, to fit the needs of every patient. This versatility ensures an optimal fit for various types of prolapse and incontinence cases.
Ring Pessary: generally chosen for earlier stage prolapse (stage I and II), but can be successful for all stages. Made from silicone they are available in sizes 0 – 10
Gellhorn Pessary: often considered for a woman who has more advanced prolapse or who needs additional support. Sized in two ways to determine the outer diameter size of the circular plate (available in 38–95 mm or equivalent inches) and secondly the vaginal length must be considered to enable a choice between a standard-length stem or short stem.
Cube Pessary: typically indicated for more severe or recurrent POP, particularly when other pessary types have failed to provide adequate support or retention. It is often used in cases such as advanced prolapse (e.g. third-degree prolapse or uterine prolapse/procidentia) where a higher level of vaginal wall adherence is required due to its suction-based design. Available to buy from Mediplus in sizes 0 – 7
Doughnut Pessary: designed to provide support by occupying the vaginal space. They are typically used more in advanced prolapse cases. Made from a flexible silicone they are available to buy from Mediplus in sizes 51mm, 57mm, 64mm, 70mm, 76mm, 83mm, 89mm, 95mm
