Abstract

The present invention provides an intra-vaginal incontinence control device formed of elastically deformable or resilient material, the device having a displacement member (1.006) including a compression recess (1.008) whereby the displacement member can be partly deformed by pressing a portion of the displacement member into the recess, the recess wall including an invertible wall portion being part of the wall of the displacement member, the invertible wall portion including a slit (1.012). The present invention also provides an applicator for an intra-vaginal incontinence control device includes an elongate handle (7.022) and a head (7.024) including at least two prongs (7.026, 7.028) adapted for engagement with lobe recesses formed in a compressed intra-vaginal incontinence control device.
