The Shaatz pessary is indicated for first to second degree uterine prolapse accompanied by a cystocele. The Shaatz design provides support for the prolapsed structures while accommodating the concurrent anterior vaginal wall defect associated with cystocele. Made from 100% silicone for biocompatibility, durability, and ease of cleaning. Latex-free. Size 4, 2.50 inch diameter.
Gynecologists, urogynecologists, and pelvic floor physical therapists who fit pessaries for patients with first to second degree uterine prolapse accompanied by a cystocele will find the Shaatz design provides appropriate structural support for this combination of pelvic floor defects in patients who are candidates for conservative, non-surgical prolapse management. Women with symptomatic first to second degree uterine prolapse and cystocele who experience pelvic pressure, urinary symptoms, or discomfort with activity and prefer a non-surgical management approach will find the Shaatz pessary a clinically appropriate option when fitted and managed by a qualified healthcare provider. Pelvic floor specialists who manage patients with prolapse during pregnancy, in the postpartum period, or in patients who are not surgical candidates due to age or medical comorbidities will find the Shaatz pessary a practical conservative management tool for this patient population. Women who have previously used a ring pessary without adequate support for their cystocele component may find the Shaatz design provides better anterior wall support due to its structural configuration. Urogynecology practices and women’s health clinics that maintain a pessary fitting inventory across multiple sizes and styles will find the 100% silicone construction of the Shaatz pessary supports autoclave sterilization and long-term durability in a clinical fitting kit.
Who should fit and manage a pessary?
Pessaries must be fitted, sized, and managed by a qualified healthcare provider — typically a gynecologist, urogynecologist, nurse practitioner, or pelvic floor physical therapist with pessary fitting training. Do not attempt to self-fit a pessary without clinical guidance. Improper sizing or placement can cause discomfort, vaginal erosion, or other complications.
How is the Shaatz pessary cleaned?
The 100% silicone construction allows the Shaatz pessary to be cleaned with mild soap and water and, if required for clinical use, autoclaved for sterilization. Follow your healthcare provider’s instructions for pessary care, cleaning frequency, and removal schedule.
How do I know which pessary size is correct?
Pessary sizing is determined by your healthcare provider during a clinical fitting examination. Size 4 (2.50 inch diameter) is one of several available sizes. Your provider will select the appropriate size and style based on your anatomy, degree of prolapse, and clinical presentation. Do not order a pessary without a clinical fitting assessment.
Is this pessary available in other sizes?
Yes. The Shaatz pessary is available in multiple sizes. Contact our customer service team for information on other available sizes if your provider has specified a different size than what is listed here.
