Back in Control: Tracy’s Prolapse Success Story with Kegel8

Read Tracy's Story

Let’s face it; “down-there” issues aren’t easy to talk about. But by sharing my experience, I hope to encourage other women not to suffer in silence. I first noticed something was wrong after the birth of my second child in 2014, when sex became uncomfortable, sometimes even painful. A quick check revealed a bulge at the entrance of my vagina—my GP confirmed it was a prolapse. Hearing I had a grade 3 cystocele was a shock; I thought prolapse was only for “older” women!

The consultant suggested an operation but encouraged me to try pelvic floor exercises to improve my symptoms and possibly delay surgery. At the urology clinic, a nurse explained how to do Kegel exercises correctly, using an “educator” device. Despite my best efforts, I couldn’t get the right response—my pelvic floor was so weak that I saw no improvement.

"My nurse introduced me to Kegel8, and it changed everything."

By this time, my confidence had taken a serious hit. My relationship was affected, as both my husband and I worried about discomfort during intimacy. My stress incontinence was also getting worse, especially after a bad cold. When I shared my concerns at the clinic, my nurse suggested a Kegel8 pelvic floor stimulator. Using gentle electronic pulses like a TENS machine, it helps to contract the pelvic floor muscles for you, ensuring they’re targeted and strengthened effectively.

"After doing some research, I decided to invest in the Kegel8 Ultra 20—and I’m so glad I did!"

The Kegel8 Ultra 20 is easy to use and offers specific programmes for different needs. I started with the prolapse programme, using it twice a day for 12 weeks. Just six weeks in, I noticed a real difference: the bulge was less prominent, my urge to visit the loo constantly was easing, and intimacy became more comfortable. At my next appointment, my nurse confirmed my muscle tone had significantly improved.

"I saw results in only 6 weeks!"

The best part? I could fit Kegel8 into my routine—I’d use it during my baby’s night feed. It’s painless and straightforward. You simply insert the probe, select your programme, and let it work. Now, I use my Kegel8 a few times a week to maintain my progress. If I’ve been lifting a lot or caught a cold, I increase my sessions, but otherwise, life is back to normal.

I’ve even started running! Before, I’d never have considered it, fearing leaks. Now, I feel stronger, more confident, and grateful I found Kegel8. It’s a powerful tool I wish I’d known about before having kids—I’d have used it to keep my pelvic floor strong throughout.

I have a daughter now, and when she’s ready, I’ll be introducing her to Kegel8, ensuring she never has to suffer these issues. Power to the pelvic floor!
