Types Of Vaginal Weights:

Bladder Control

You may think bladder control problems are something that happen when you get older. The truth is that women of all ages have urine leakage. The problem is also called incontinence. Men leak urine too, but the problem is more common in women.

Many women leak urine when they exercise, laugh hard, cough, or sneeze.
Often women leak urine when they are pregnant or after they have given birth.
Women who have stopped having their periods—menopause—often report bladder control problems.
Female athletes of all ages sometimes have urine leakage during strenuous sports activities.

Kegel Exercises

Kegel (KAY-gul or KEY-gul) exercises strengthen the pelvic floor muscles, which support the uterus, bladder and bowel. If you do Kegel exercises regularly and keep your pelvic floor muscles toned, you may reduce your risk of incontinence and similar problems as you get older. Kegel exercises can also help you control urinary incontinence.

Learning how to perform Kegel exercises properly can be tricky. How do you know whether you're working the correct muscles?

When your pelvic floor muscles weaken, your pelvic organs descend and bulge into your vagina, a condition known as pelvic organ prolapse. The effects of pelvic organ prolapse range from uncomfortable pelvic pressure to leakage of urine or feces. Fortunately, Kegel exercises can strengthen pelvic muscles and delay or maybe even prevent pelvic organ prolapse.

Kegel exercises are recommended especially during pregnancy. Well-toned pelvic floor muscles may make you more comfortable as your due date approaches. You may be less likely to develop urine leakage — common near the end of pregnancy and prone to persist after you've given birth.

Aquaflex Vaginal Weights

Weights are a simple but effective exercise aid for treating female urinary stress incontinence and improving pelvic floor function. Aquaflex adapts superbly to a wide range of physical conditions and levels of muscle tones which is one of the most versatile cone system available.

For optimum results, a cone system with two sizes and a small increment of 5 g between weights is ideal. Doctors prescribe with confidence for most of their stress incontinence patients.

Reasons to prescribe are:

- Easier and faster to teach pelvic floor muscle control.

- The patient does the therapy at home, reducing the number of clinic visits.

Theory of Operation
The Aquaflex method functions by causing the contraction of the pubococcygeus muscle in response to the presence of the weighted cone.

This improves muscle recruitment and increases strength; both are essential for developing and maintaining continence control.

The weighted cones are especially beneficial for strengthening the "slow-twitch" postural muscle fibres that are so important for continence, general well-being, sexual response and sexual intensity. When the cone does eventually slip out after a few minutes, this induces a powerful reflex action in the pubococcygeus muscle which activates and stimulates the muscle fibres.

How to use Aquaflex Vaginal Cones

cones The cone is gently introduced into the vagina with the larger end first and the cord outside the vagina

Usually, the larger cone is used first (it should be comfortable to insert this size without lubrication, otherwise use the smaller size). When the empty shell is inserted, tighten your pelvic floor muscles while gently pulling on the cord to ensure that the cone is in its correct position, resting just over the pelvic floor muscles. If it is too far in or wedged behind a prolapse it cannot help in re-educating your pelvic floor msucles. If you contract your pelvic floor muscles you should be able to feel the cone being pulled away from the tip of your finger. If it seems to push out you are using the wrong muscles

See if you can retain the Aquaflex Vaginal Weights while standing up and walking around for one minute. If this poses no problems, start to add weights and repeat the procedure. Eventually, you will find the weight that you cannot retain for the one-minute walking. Go back to the weight that you could retain for one minute and use this as your ‘exercising cone weight’. Aim then to use the cone with this weight for 15 minutes twice a day; sometimes 20 minutes once per day is recommended instead

If you cannot retain the empty cone shell in standing, lie down and try the exercises whilst gently pulling on the cord. If you still cannot retain the cone in standing consult your health professional again

When able to retain the cone for the full 15 minutes on two consecutive occasions increase the cone weight

If able to retain all the weights in the larger cone whilst doing activities, try using the smaller cone. It will be more difficult and you will need to start with a lower weight again

Use your cones daily and there should be improvement in about eight weeks. However it is recommended that you continue to exercise for at least 12 weeks. A program of exercise for 20 weeks is quite usual
