If organs slip in a woman's abdomen and the pelvic floor drops, this has unpleasant consequences for those affected. Surgery is not always necessary. A gynecologist and a patient explain why pessaries work well and how easy they are to use.

Complaints that many women are familiar with. Do women have to put up with them? No. Read what can help.
