The FemSoft Insert is a small, single-use, liquid and silicone product that is inserted into the urethra. The FemSoft Insert is designed to prevent urine leakage during daily activities in adult women with stress urinary incontinence (SUI). SUI is the involuntary loss of urine caused by pressure on the bladder from everyday activities as common as laughing, sneezing, coughing, lifting a bag of groceries, rising from a sitting position, or exercising.

The FemSoft Insert is a new option for the non-surgical management of female stress urinary incontinence (SUI). Results of clinical studies indicate that the FemSoft Insert is a viable option for women with mild to severe SUI due to urethral hypermobility or intrinsic sphincter deficiency (ISD).

Have interstitial cystitis, pyelonephritis, or a history of severely compromised urinary tract mucosal tissue.
