Quick Start Guide

Choosing the right size

Contrelle is available in 3 sizes (Size 1, 2 and 3, you will find the number indicated in the hollow on the underside of the foam piece). Each size uses the same applicator.

You may need to experiment a little to find out which size suits you best. The sizing kit contains all 3 sizes and will help you find the most effective and comfortable fit for you. Finding the right size has nothing to do with the amount you leak, how much you weigh or how tall you are.

Every woman is different – the size you need depends on the size and shape of your vagina, as well as the amount of support or gentle pressure needed on your bladder to help stop leaks. Selecting the right size – using the sizing kit – is important so you get the most effective and comfortable fit to help stop your leaks when you laugh, cough, sneeze or exercise. There is no benefit in trying a size which is too large as it will not provide better results in stopping leakage. It will also be tight to easily insert and will make removal difficult.

To find the right size for you, we suggest:

For new users to find the best size, we recommend starting with size 1
Once inserted you should feel comfortable
You should experience little or no urine leakage when you are active or when you cough, and the device should not move
If you still experience leakage, this could be due to the positioning rather than size. Before trying a larger size check the device isn’t positioned too high, by gently pulling on both strings to slightly lower the position of Contrelle® Activgard
If this doesn’t help and you still experience leakage or you feel the device moves with Size 1, try Size 2
If significant leakage still occurs when using Size 2, again try adjusting the positioning
If you still experience leakage or the device moves change to Size 3
We recommend you should walk for at least 30 minutes, cough, jump or run to check for any leakage and movement
Contrelle® Activgard should always be easy to insert. A small amount of water-based lubricant should provide added comfort to insert

Some women will find their size quickly, and others may need to try all three to find their perfect fit.

Many women find using a water-based lubricant such as YES, can help ease insertion.

Contrelle is fitted properly if:

You can walk for 30 minutes, cough, jump or run without any leakage or with substantially reduced leakage.
You are still able to urinate. Contrelle should not stop you from passing urine.

Don’t be put off if you still leak a little at first. This can be because your body is getting used to the fit or because you’re one of the few that will continue to leak but at a significantly reduced rate.

Some women may experience slight initial discomfort until they get used to the product. Clinical experience suggests most women do not feel Contrelle Activgard after 2 or 3 uses.
