bodyotics - Intimate Wellness

Bodyotics is committed to promoting "intimate wellness," focusing on the well-being of the female intimate area. Their high-quality product range includes menstrual discs, dilators, and Kegel weights. Each product is developed in collaboration with pelvic floor experts and doctors, ensuring rigorous safety testing and effectiveness.

The menstrual disc: A versatile alternative to tampons

Tampons are a widely used hygiene product, with the average woman using over 7,400 tampons in her lifetime. However, concerns have arisen due to the detection of harmful substances in tampons and the lack of defined safety limits, making it difficult to assess potential long-term effects. As a result, many women are seeking safer, more sustainable alternatives.

One standout option is the Menstrual Disc by bodyotics. Made from 100% medical-grade silicone, it offers a safer and more comfortable experience compared to traditional tampons. Notably, it can be worn during intimate moments, providing convenience and versatility. The menstrual disc can hold up to 6 tampons' worth of fluid and is easy to remove without causing negative pressure, ensuring a high level of comfort.

Moreover, the menstrual disc is reusable, with an average lifespan of 5 years, making it an environmentally friendly choice.

Dilators

Dilators are versatile tools essential for intimate health, addressing a range of therapeutic needs. These tubular devices, made from materials such as plastic or medical-grade silicone—as offered by bodyotics—are designed to gently stretch vaginal tissue. They are effective in loosening scar tissue, relaxing overly tight pelvic floor muscles, and improving muscle coordination. Additionally, dilators can help alleviate discomfort and provide relaxation during tampon insertion, medical examinations, or sexual activity.

The areas of application are:

• Vaginismus: muscle spasms during sexual intercourse
• Menopause: hormonal changes may lead to pain during sex.

Before using dilators, it is crucial to consult with a doctor for a proper diagnosis and medical guidance.

Dilators are not designed to train pelvic floor muscles. For this purpose, Kegel weights are recommended. This leads us to the next bodyotics product:

Pelvic floor training with Kegel weights

Approximately 1 in 3 women experience pelvic floor issues, such as incontinence or uterine prolapse. Unfortunately, these conditions are often undetected and untreated due to a lack of awareness or understanding, potentially leading to invasive surgery in severe cases. Proactive measures, such as training with Kegel weights, can help prevent these outcomes.

When the pelvic floor becomes overly stretched or weakened, it fails to adequately support the organs above it. This can lead to troubling symptoms, including a protruding bump, bulging sensations, pain during sex, lower back pain, urinary issues, bleeding, and constipation.

The Kegel weights by bodyotics feature an ergonomic teardrop shape and are crafted from medical-grade silicone that is hypoallergenic and BPA-free. This ultra-soft silicone is rigorously tested to ensure optimal comfort and, most importantly, to prioritise consumer safety.

Pelvic floor training targets the muscles to enhance blood circulation, strengthen the area, and serve as a proactive measure before considering surgery. Additionally, strengthening these muscles can improve sexual satisfaction; the more robust and elastic your pelvic floor, the more enjoyable and fulfilling your intimate experiences can be.
