ABSTRACT:
A female urinary device includes a generally inverted U-shaped, stiff and resiliently bendable, member having an upper end portion insertable into a vaginal orifice and depending spaced leg portions engaged with the vaginal wall. Spaced arm portions extend laterally forwardly from the leg portions for forcibly contacting and spreading the labia minora and majora without distorting forces being applied to the urethral orifice disposed generally between and adjacent the free ends of the arm portions. A reduced neck portion of the legs is located in the vaginal orifice after said leg portions have been squeezed together and the device is properly positioned in and on the female. The vaginal muscles engage the leg portions which correspondingly exert expanding forces within the vagina to position and stabilize the device in its operative position with the arm portions exerting expanding forces on the labia minora and majora. Outwardly directed lips are provided on the arm portions, as well as, specific shapes being provided to the arm and leg portions to effectively stabilize, position, retain and conform the device to the female urinary-genital region.
