Problem
Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) affects millions of women, causing urine leakage during activities like coughing, sneezing, or exercise. While absorbent products are commonly used, many women desire an alternative for more comfortable engagement in activities outside the home. Current solutions like pessaries, injections, and surgery have limitations in terms of convenience, invasiveness, or potential complications.
Solution
Flourish Medical offers a single-use, disposable device designed to manage stress urinary incontinence by providing support to the urethra. Inserted like a tampon, the device features flexible arms that rest upon the pelvic floor muscles, compensating for weak natural support and preventing leaks before they happen. This allows women to resume regular activities without concern, restoring confidence and eliminating the need for bulky absorbent pads or invasive procedures. The device is self-positioning, easy to use, and requires no cleaning, offering a convenient and discreet solution for SUI management.
Target Audience
The primary target audience is women experiencing stress urinary incontinence who seek a discreet, non-surgical, and convenient solution to manage their condition and maintain an active lifestyle.
