This may be used in the treatment of uterine prolapse or stress incontinence. Ring pessaries must be changed regularly - usually every 4-6 months - and before replacement, must be washed and the vagina inspected to exclude trauma.

Ring pessaries are only satisfactory for the lesser degrees of prolapse or for mild stress incontinence.
