In this intimate and delicate part of your body, it’s essential to know that you’re using a product which is completely safe.  A lot of products have appeared in the last few years, but many are untested and unlicensed for public sale, and they may well be made of unsafe materials.  Some of these products can even be bought from reputable sources and websites so you need to be careful about which ones you use.

So how can you tell which are the genuine and safe products?

Under UK and EU law, any product which claims to strengthen your pelvic floor is classed as a Medical Device.  This means it has to meet obligatory safety and effectiveness criteria set down by law.

LadySystem Pelvic Floor Exercise Therapy is a Class 1 Medical Device which satisfies the requirements of the European Medical Devices Directive.  It also bears the “CE Mark” (see below) which shows that it has been registered with the UK Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA).

Look for CE Mark!
Recommended by specialists

The materials used in the manufacture of LadySystem Pelvic Floor Therapy comply with international standards of pharmacological safety, including United States Pharmacopoeia XXII Class VI, FDA, and ISO 10993 (biocompatibility).

LadySystem Pelvic Floor Therapy has been used and recommended by medical specialists over 20 years. It is our policy continuously to develop the product in order to optimise its safety, quality, and effectiveness, and we maintain a close dialogue with medical professionals and users of the product in order to achieve that aim.

Ladysystem Pelvic Floor Therapy cones are of robust design and construction and have been extensively tested for safety in regular every day use.

How to identify risky products? 

Is it registered with government health authorities for public sale and use?

It’s easy to tell.  Look for the CE Mark (see below) on the packaging or elsewhere on the product. If it’s present then the full name, address, and contact details of the manufacturer or distributor should also be present. If both aren’t clearly shown, avoid the product.

The Product EAN No. is 5060413050004

Is this a genuine product or therapy, or a cheap imported copy?

The U.K. and  Europe are currently flooded with counterfeit medical products claiming to be the real thing.  Genuine products are usually accompanied by comprehensive instructions for use, including contra-indications and other safety information.   Again, look for the CE Mark accompanied by the full contact details of the manufacturer.  If they aren’t clearly shown, you should avoid the product.

Has it been clinically tested?

Any genuine therapy will have been clinically tested and proven, otherwise it’s illegal for sale to the public.  If nothing about this is mentioned on the packaging, contact the manufacturers and ask for details.  If you can’t get any information, the product is best avoided.  Genuine manufacturers will only be only too pleased to provide any information which you request.

Weighted exercisers for intravaginal use (e.g. vaginal cones)

These products should always contain a range of at least 5 or more weights, and not just one or two.  Be wary of multi-coloured, odd shaped products, with rudimentary or no instructions, and use the above three rules to distinguish them from genuine therapies.

Any which are spheres or a combination of spheres (chinese balls, Ben Wa balls) have no clinical credentials whatsoever to support their use for pelvic floor strengthening.  Therefore, they won’t be of any therapeutic benefit despite the manufacturers’ publicity.

  • Thank you little sister!

    My sister kept on at me to try this product but I was really sceptical.  I’d had years with leaking problems and nothing had helped. But I finally gave it a go, and I was surprised how easy it was and how quickly you improve.  I use it for 20 minutes morning and evening, while I’m getting on with my other bits and bobs.  Marvellous product, well done!

  • Perfect for stress incontinence

    Since this product appeared, it’s been much easier and more straightforward dealing with cases of stress incontinence among my women patients. They find it an easy and very acceptable way to get rid of their embarrassing symptoms.

    London GP (February 2017)
  • I highly recommend it!

    I’d known about this system for some time and I wish I’d plucked up the courage to try it sooner.  I feel so much stronger down there now and I’m already on my third cone.  I’d encourage every woman with problems not to give it a second thought.  Go ahead and start NOW!

    E. H. (Derby, November 2015)
  • I finally found the answer!

    I found this just Googling, because after talking to a specialist I came away unconvinced.  Now, just 5 weeks after starting, I’m really comfortable and so pleased with my progress.  I’ll complete the recommended 12 weeks and carry on just to make sure the improvement is permanent.  I really don’t want to go back to the anxiety and discomfort I’ve experienced these last few months.  And I’ve changed my specialist.

  • The best thing I’ve ever done

    I bought it for my Mum who’s 63.  Her pelvic muscles have been getting steadily worse for ages, so  I decided I’d look for something easy which would help her.  She’s not the kind who tries too hard at things but she’s so happy with LadySystem.  She says she hasn’t felt this good about herself for a long time.

  • First class product!

    This is a first class product of exceptional quality and design!  I really gave up hoping for my pelvic floor to get back to normal, but after only two weeks of using this System I can feel my muscles getting stronger every day.  My doctor told me to use it because nothing else at all had worked for me, and he told me it’s the only pelvic exerciser which has been properly medically tested and proven.  The system is very easy to understand and the instruction leaflet is well written and very informative.  The best part is that it’s so easy to use that it takes up no time or effort.  Their customer service is also outstanding, and it gets my top recommendation!

  • Absolutely invaluable

    This therapy is absolutely invaluable. I recommend it as a preventive measure to all of my patients at their six week post-natal check especially with a second child.

  • It was marvellous to find it!

    This product literally changed my life!!  My muscles were so weak I couldn’t even hold in a tampon, and in just 8 weeks the progress is incredible! Strongly recommended!!

    A Very Satisfied Customer (London, November 2016)
  • Genuine innovation!

    This innovative approach to pelvic floor exercises is an advance in our management of genuine stress incontinence.

    British Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology (London, January 2017)
  • Great results from the beginning

    I’m very happy with this.  I’ve only used it for four weeks but I could tell it was working almost from the first day.  I’m now on the third cone now and I can feel such a big improvement. It’s really nicely made too, a super quality product!  Ladies, this one really works!!

    Am W. (Montreal, May 2017)
  • Life saver

    I’m in my early fifties and was having to resort to panty liners every day.  It’s embarrassing and so I kept it to myself.  My doctor told me about this, and after using LadySystem I can honestly say that it’s one of the best things I’ve ever done.  In just a few weeks I’m well on the way to being my old self (not that old!) and it hasn’t been difficult at all!  Health professionals really should be telling more women about this fantastic option.

    Holly P. (Leeds, December 2016)
  • I’m amazed

    My cousin works in a health centre and she advised me to use this product for my leaking symptoms.  She told me it had been tested by doctors and was made with safe materials.  I’m so grateful to her, my symptoms  are improving so much and it hardly takes up any time or effort.

    Happy bunny (Sheffield, September 2015)
  • Truly delighted

    Despite being in my 20’s I was suffering from a weak vaginal wall and started with Kegel exercises.  But I didn’t get any improvement after months and also found it hard to find the time to do them.  I was given Ladysystem as a gift by a thoughtful cousin and it’s helped me so much.  My muscles are stronger than they’ve ever been and it’s totally easy to use.  Delighted.

  • Significantly better than exercise without cones

    Training with vaginal cones produced significantly better pelvic floor muscle strength than did exercise without cones. We also find it worthwhile to consider pelvic floor muscle physiotherapy with vaginal cones, most probably useful for the prevention of utero-vaginal prolapse, urinary incontinence, and as an aid to sexual satisfaction.

  • Convenient and effective

    I became a mother three months ago, and I’d been told that it’s necessary to get your pelvic floor fit afterwards.  My health centre mentioned the Lady System and after looking at the alternatives that’s the one I decided to use.  I find it very easy to use, you might have to make a little effort for a couple of days when you change from one cone to the next, but after that it stays in virtually by itself.  I find that 10 minutes each time is plenty for me.  It’s really worked for me and takes up no time at all.

  • Every woman should know about this

    I wish I’d known about this product years ago.  I’ve tried most of the publicised remedies but none was any good.  A friend told me about this Lady System, she’d bought one a couple of years back and was delighted with it.  I wasn’t sure to start with because I’d tried so many things, but day by day I realised things were getting better and that my muscles were stronger.  And once I’d managed to actually change to the next cone up I knew I was on my way.  It’s really easy because you can use it anywhere, and 15 minutes each time is enough.  I recommended it to several of friends and not one of them has been disappointed.  Great results every time!

    Ann (Nottingham, August 2016)
  • The best recommendation

    I’m slim and fit and don’t have any kids, but I’ve had pelvic floor problems for years.  A friend of mine mentioned this product which she had started to use a couple of weeks earlier.  We compare notes and we’re both absolutely delighted with it!  I’m amazed because I’ve done pelvic floor exercises on and off for years with little to show for it, but two weeks with my cones and I’ve felt more improvement than ever before.  People don’t realise how this kind of problem affects your confidence, but mine is sky high.

    P. P. (Brussels, February 2017)
  • Now I’m running again

    Running has been my life and I had to give it up because of my pelvic floor.  I’ve tried the cones for some weeks and I’m feeling so much stronger.  I’m taking things carefully for now, but I’ve been able to get back to my running.  Really helped me.

     

    Olivia D. (Melbourne, January 2016)
  • A very good product!

    This is a very good product, and I wish I’d known about it years ago. It really should be recommended to all women after childbirth by doctors. Doctors do us no favours by not telling us about these things. This worked within days of starting to use it and I’m doing so regularly. It just works, and kegels on their own never worked and I have done those for years.  I exercise regularly an I am very fit and not overweight. There is no reason whatever not to try this first. I had started thinking I may have to see a specialist and decided to try this first. Kegels just don’t work and are a waste of time because you never get anywhere with them. They may have some mild toning effect but nothing that really improves leakage symptoms.

    H.R. (Berlin, April 2017)
  • It really works!

    I bought one four weeks ago and the results are amazing!  After three kids I thought my body had changed for ever, and so did my poor husband.  I was desperate for a solution and luckily I found this really quickly.
