HOW DOES IT WORK?

How can the YoniFlex reduce your pelvic organ prolapse?  Let's get sciency:

In order to understand how the YoniFlex works, you must first learn why pelvic organ prolapse happens in the first place.  Pelvic organ prolapse happens when your muscles and tissues that support your pelvic floor organs become weak or loose.  When this happens, it allows one or more pelvic organs to drop or press into our out of your vagina or rectum.¹  

 

LOOSE & WEAK PELVIC FLOOR MUSCLES = PELVIC ORGAN PROLAPSE

 

To strengthen your weak pelvic floor muscles, the YoniFlex uses targeted neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES for short) to stimulate your pelvic floor muscles rhythmically contract (tighten) and then relax (loosen).  This automatic contraction (tightening) of your pelvic floor muscles, and then relaxing (resting) happens automatically dozens of times a minute when using the YoniFlex.  

This process will strengthen your pelvic floor muscles over time, allowing them to hold all of your pelvic organs in place reducing your prolapse.

The best part is - YoniFlex does the work for you.  Manual kegel exercise requires you to strain and concentrate, and some women have pelvic floors that are so weak, they cannot perform these exercises on their own.   The YoniFlex does the work for you without any stress or worry.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS: 

We get a lot of questions about the YoniFlex.  Here are the top asked questions.  If you don't see the answer you are looking for, you can click here to contact me and ask me your questions directly.

• Q: -How long will it take to reduce my pelvic floor prolapse?

  A: The short answer is - it depends.  It depends on the severity of your prolapse, your age, and how quickly your body responds to strength training.  Most women start to see improvements in 2-3 weeks, however as we age, our muscles take longer to strengthen, so for some women it could take up to 4 weeks of daily use to start to see results.  The complete program for pelvic organ prolapse is 12 weeks.

• Q:  Can I use the YoniFlex with an IUD?  After a hysterectomy?

  A:  Yes, and Yes!  IUDs are located in your uterus, which is far away from where the YoniFlex does its magic.  There are no issues using the Yoniflex after a hysterectomy, providing you wait at least six weeks post surgery.

• Q:  I have rectal prolapse / rectocele. Will the YoniFlex help me?

  A:  Absolutely.  The pelvic floor muscle groups are all interconnected and strengthening your pelvic floor will have benefits for rectal prolapse and rectocele.  We also offer rectal probes as alternatives to target the pelvic floor muscles supporting the rectum.

• Q:   Can I use the YoniFlex while pregnant?  

  A:  No.  The YoniFlex should not be used when pregnant or when trying to get pregnant.   

• Q:   Is the YoniFlex safe?  

  A:  The Yoniflex is a safe, non surgical and non pharmaceutical method to strengthen your pelvic floor.  Normally, your body fires your muscles into action through your central nervous system.  The YoniFlex is simply replacing your body's own signals.   Your body can not tell the difference between a voluntary contraction and electrically stimulated one, it only recognizes a stimulus and reacts accordingly.

• Q:  Tell me about the science behind YoniFlex!

  A:  There have been dozens of studies on successful treatments using EMS.  If you want to deep dive into the science behind the YoniFlex, checkout this page:  Understanding the science.

• Q:  How long does shipping take?

  A:  The Free shipping option will take approximately 5-8 business days to arrive.  It is recommended if you want your YoniFlex faster to choose the express shipping option, which will cut the shipping time in half.
