Pessary

I recently had a gellhorn pessary fitted at the hospital pessary clinic. While it’s stopped the symptoms of cystocele I now get little stinging sensations and a dull lower stomach ache. In the last few days the ache has spread to my groin areas. I’m wondering if anyone else has had these symptoms or if it’s more likely to be something else going on.

if it is at all uncomfortable have it checked out. You shouldn’t notice you have it in.
