Excellent probe. Well made, easy to use and good value.
A neat piece of kit , easy to use and effective Adjustable hilt could have a more effective lock though.
I've used this probe occasionally for several months now, and it has been comfortable and conductive enough when I am standing up. It is small and neat and slides in easily. It protrudes too much to be comfortable sitting down, as do most of the anal probes on the market.. However, after barely a week of use, the ring that allows you to adjust it could no longer be locked in place. This gave two problems. First, it was hard to get the probe in the right place. Second, it could theoretically disappear inside and need pulling out using only the cables. I ended up gluing the ring in place and it is now working well but in a well designed product, this wouldn't have been necessary
been using this probe almost 2 weeks and ive got high hopes it will stop my rectocele getting worst.
im just concerned about how far up the probe goes into the anus.
im frightened of damaging the sphincter muscle.
should about 1 " be left out only and the rest should be inserted?
how far in should the lower silver band be inside you to clear the sphincter muscle ? about half inch? and if its not in enough will it cause damage?
also ive found a little lubrication gel really helps with insertion.
Following my hysterectomy I was unable to use a normal size probe so this has been good for me while I also use a vaginal dilator to help with the scaring that I have vaginally.
Very comfortable to use,especially for me as I have a rectal prolapse and want to avoid surgical intervention. This was recommended to me by my Physiotherapist.
Good service.
Simple to use, and it has a hilt so positioning is easy. I like this probe.
Having suffered for some time with an early anal prolapse bought the slim probe to use with my Kegal ultra purchased 5 years ago. I am really pleased with the results and can feel real improvements. I used the website directions to programme an anal programme into my unit as it did not have one.
I would highly recommend trying this before resorting to surgery.
I have only been using the probe for about a month, it seems to work well and I can definitely feel the contractions.
However the adjustment ring could do with redesigning as it does not lock in place very well, I have had to wrap an elastic band around the bottom of it to keep it in place!
I was very nervous of using the probes pictured on the website with the Kegel8 unit, as they looked very big, so i ordered the slim probe and hoped i could progress to the original sized one that comes with the unit.
After having had a hysterectomy in 2007 and radiotherapy i developed atrophy of my vagina. Then along comes urgency incontinence, Although I was only 60 then, i felt really, really old when i started to have to wear Panty liners.
I have only just started the treatment with the Kegel8 and feel I did the correct thing in starting off with the slimmer prob,the first three times I used it, it was a little painful to insert,but I am glad to report the pain has now stopped on insertion. I think I still need more confidence to use the larger probe,which I am sure will come the more I use the Kegel8. Thank you.
