ABSTRACT:
A pessary device, comprising a first inflatable chamber adapted to fit in the vestibule of the vaginal cavity of a human when inflated, wherein the chamber compresses the urethra of the human when inflated; an anchor member adapted to snugly fit in the vaginal cavity, the anchor member being connected to the inflatable chamber on the posterior side of the chamber when the pessary is in its normal operating position; and an inflation tube having a first end fluidly connected to the inflatable chamber and a second end connected to an inflation valve located external to the vagina when the pessary device is in its normal operating position that permits inflation and deflation of the inflatable chamber without disturbing the fit of the anchor member.
