Contrelle Activgard size 1 is used to manage women's urinary incontinence. The Activgard is inserted into the vagina, similar to a tampon, to support the bladder and urethra, helping to prevent urine leakage. It offers a discreet and non-surgical option for those experiencing stress urinary incontinence, letting you laugh, sneeze, cough or exercise without worrying about minor leaks.

Size 1 is the smallest of three sizes. If you are unsure of what size you need, you can try the Contrelle sizing kit to ensure you choose the correct size.
  • 5 x size 1 activgards.
  • Soft, comfortable and discreet.
  • Single use for up to 16 hours.
  • Prevents minor leaks.
  • Allows you to go about your day without worrying about minor accidents.
  • Discreet, you will no longer need to wear bulky pads.
  • Also available Size 2-medium and Size 3-large
Directions of use:
Please read the Contrelle Activgard instructions before using Contrelle Activgard.

It is recommended that you start with size 1 (Small).
You can relax and find a comfortable position that makes it easy to insert Contrelle Activgard.
Hold the applicator between finger and thumb on the placement grooves and place Contrelle Activgard at the opening of the vagina with the wings front to back, not side to side towards your thighs.
Once inserted, you should feel comfortable.
When you are active or cough, you should experience little or no urine leakage, and the device should not move.
If you still experience leakage, this could be due to the positioning rather than size. Before trying a more significant 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 feel the device moves with Size 1, try Size 2.
If significant leakage occurs when using Size 2, adjust the positioning again.
If you are still experiencing leakage or the device moves, change it to Size 3.

You should walk for at least 30 minutes, cough, jump or run to check for leakage and movement.
Contrelle Activgard should always be easy to insert. A small amount of water-based lubricant should provide added comfort to insert
