Do a few drops leak when you sneeze or laugh? Or do you feel less strong “down there” since childbirth? You are not alone – nearly one third of women experience some degree of pelvic floor muscle weakness during their lifetime. With Fleuron vaginal balls you can work on the issue at home in just 15 minutes a day – discreetly, naturally, without medication. Why choose Fleuron vaginal balls? 4 levels – at your body’s pace The weight system from 48 g to 105 g lets you start with the lightest ball and progress when your muscles are ready. No rushing – you set the rhythm. Train while doing household tasks No need to carve out special time. Insert the ball and your body works while you cook, walk or clean. 15 minutes a day is enough to notice change. Medical silicone – body-friendly and safe The soft, hypoallergenic medical-grade silicone feels natural, does not irritate and is easy to clean. Waterproof design with a flexible retrieval cord. Feel internal feedback The "ball within a ball" design creates a subtle vibration when your pelvic floor muscles contract. This natural biofeedback helps you learn correct muscle activation – like having a personal trainer guide the exercise. Who is it for? Do you feel different “down there” since giving birth? ▼ Sound familiar? The baby has arrived but your body has not fully recovered. Vaginal delivery places significant strain on the pelvic floor muscles, and recovery can take weeks or months. Fleuron balls can help rebuild pelvic floor strength after the postpartum period (min. 6 weeks). Start with the lightest 48 g ball and progress to heavier levels at your muscles’ pace. Research suggests postpartum pelvic floor training can positively affect both urinary control and sexual function. Always consult your attending physician or midwife before use! Do a few drops leak when you cough or laugh? ▼ Sound familiar? Involuntary urine loss when sneezing, laughing or with sudden movement is a symptom known as stress urinary incontinence. It is a consequence of weakened pelvic floor muscles and is very common – but you don’t have to accept it. A Cochrane systematic review (23 trials, 1806 women) found training with weighted vaginal cones significantly more effective than no treatment for stress urinary incontinence. Fleuron’s progressive weight system allows personalized training – starting with lighter balls and progressing to heavier ones. With regular 15-minute daily use, improvement can be felt within 4–6 weeks. Do you feel like your body is "letting go" during menopause? ▼ Sound familiar? Hormonal changes – especially declining estrogen – can affect the elasticity and strength of pelvic floor tissues. Many experience urinary control problems or reduced sexual sensitivity during this time. Regular pelvic floor training can help maintain muscle tone and pelvic circulation. The Fleuron "ball within a ball" design provides gentle passive stimulation, which can help preserve muscle awareness even if active contractions feel harder due to hormonal changes. Do you feel discomfort when running or jumping? ▼ Sound familiar? Many women experience urine leakage during sports – especially running, high-impact workouts or CrossFit – which they may be embarrassed by and thus avoid exercise. This does not mean you should stop being active! Targeted strengthening of the pelvic floor muscles can help maintain reliable urinary control during exertion. Fleuron balls can be used independently of workouts, at any time of day – the training effect gradually integrates into your daily routine. Do intimate moments feel different than before? ▼ Sound familiar? Intimate moments may feel less intense, as if you’ve "lost" previous sensitivity. Pelvic floor muscle weakness can affect sexual experience for both partners. Strong, consciously controlled pelvic floor muscles can help achieve more intense sexual experiences. Regular training can improve pelvic blood flow, which may contribute to sensitivity. Fleuron balls offer a discreet, at-home option for this. How to use? It's this simple: 1 Choose the right ball Start with the lightest 48 g ball. If you can comfortably keep it in for 15 minutes, move to the next weight. The set includes 4 levels: 48 g, 57 g, 68 g and 105 g. 2 Insert the ball Use a water-based lubricant for comfortable insertion. Insert the ball similar to a tampon – the retrieval cord remains outside. Choose a comfortable position (semi-seated or standing). 3 Carry on with your daily tasks Stand up and continue your day. Gravity pulls the ball down, and your pelvic floor muscles reflexively work to keep it in place. The inner ball’s subtle vibration provides continuous feedback. 15 minutes a day is sufficient. 4 Remove and clean Gently pull the ball out by the retrieval cord, like a tampon. Wash with lukewarm soapy water, dry and place back into the storage case. Done! How can Fleuron vaginal balls help? The pelvic floor is a complex group of muscles that supports the bladder, uterus and rectum at the base of the pelvis. When these muscles weaken – due to childbirth, hormonal changes, aging or a sedentary lifestyle – various problems may arise: urine leakage, a sensation of pelvic organ prolapse, or reduced sexual sensitivity. Fleuron vaginal balls work on the principle of progressive resistance. The ball inserted into the vagina is pulled downward by gravity, requiring the pelvic floor muscles to work continuously to keep it in place. This “passive training” effectively builds muscle strength without the need to actively concentrate on exercises. The "ball within a ball" internal structure creates a gentle vibration with every movement. This natural biofeedback helps your muscles "learn" the correct activation pattern – similar to how biofeedback devices work, but without electricity, entirely naturally. What does the package contain? 4 x Fleuron vaginal balls (48 g, 57 g, 68 g, 105 g) Hygienic storage case Instructions for use (English) Recommended accessory: water-based lubricant ▼ For comfortable insertion we recommend a water-based lubricant. It is important to use only water-based gels – oil- or silicone-based lubricants can damage the medical silicone surface. TensCare GoGel is a water-based lubricant specifically developed for intimate devices that provides optimal glide. Maintenance and cleaning ▼ Wash the balls with lukewarm soapy water before and after use, rinse and dry. TensCare disinfectant wipes may also be used. Pathogens do not adhere to medical silicone, so boiling is not necessary. Always store the balls in the supplied storage case in a dry place. Important: Do not use alcohol-based, aggressive cleaners, perfumed soaps or oil-based substances – these can damage the silicone surface. Frequently Asked Questions When should I NOT use Fleuron vaginal balls? Do not use during pregnancy, with an active vaginal infection (fungal, bacterial or viral), within 6 weeks postpartum, during the healing period after vaginal surgery, or in the presence of advanced pelvic organ prolapse. Avoid use for 12 weeks following IUD insertion. If unsure, consult your treating physician! Is there scientific evidence for vaginal ball pelvic floor training? Yes. A Cochrane systematic review (23 trials, 1806 women) found that training with vaginal cones is significantly more effective than no treatment for stress urinary incontinence, and shows similar effectiveness to traditional pelvic floor muscle training or electrostimulation. How do I choose the correct weight? Always start with the lightest (48 g) ball! Insert it and try to keep it in while standing for 1–2 minutes. If this is easy, move to the next weight. The goal is to train with a ball you can hold in place but that requires mild effort. When you can comfortably keep a given weight in for 15 minutes, progress to the next level. How often and for how long should I use them? 15 minutes a day is sufficient. You can start with as little as 5 minutes daily and gradually increase the time. Experience shows regular daily use can produce measurable improvements in muscle strength within 4–6 weeks. You can train during everyday activities – housework, cooking or walking. Can I use Fleuron balls after childbirth? Yes, but only after the postpartum period (minimum 6 weeks) and with medical approval. Postpartum recovery is individual, so it is important that your physician or midwife approves use. After a cesarean section, also wait until the surgical wound has healed. How do I clean the balls? Wash the balls with lukewarm soapy water before and after use, rinse thoroughly and dry. Disinfectant wipes (e.g. TensCare Wipes) are also usable. Store the balls in the supplied hygienic storage case. Do not use alcohol-based or aggressive cleaners, as they can damage the silicone surface.
