Thank you for your help, mumofmadboys. Hopefully it will settle down today.

If it is correctly fitted you should not feel it. It may have moved a little and need repositioning or a slightly different size. Sorry just noticed you said you can't feel it! See if symptoms settle over the next 24 hours . Have a restful day. If it doesn't fit the symptoms will persist or get worse. You could get a female GP to check it is correctly positioned. Hope symptoms settle. ( I am a retired GP)

I have had a prolapsed uterus/bladder for many years and have undergone two ops, neither have been succesful. Had an appointment at gynae today and was fitted with a vaginal pessary, to be refitted in 6 months. I cant feel the actual pessary, but now am having low dragging stomach pain similar to period pains. Is this normal, or anything to worry about?
