INNOVO® has asked us to find 5 gransnetters who suffer from stress or urge incontinence to test and keep the INNOVO® pelvic restoration system.

Here’s what Innovo has to say: “INNOVO® is a revolutionary system that uses proven technology to target the root cause of bladder weakness, not just the symptoms. Suitable for women suffering from little leaks to total loss of control, it is clinically proven to work. INNOVO® has the expertise, experience and technology to understand and help women suffering with bladder weakness and restore their confidence. They do not have to live with it.

INNOVO® is the only solution to treat all pelvic floor weakness problems, it is non-invasive, clinically proven and targets the cause not just the symptoms, so that women don’t need to live a life searching for toilets or constantly carrying pads.”

Feel free to find out more about the product here.



The product is worth £249.99 and selected testers will be able to keep the product following the test.

If selected, you’ll need to test the product for 30 minutes a day, 5 days a week over a 12 week period, and then post your feedback on a thread on Gransnet. Please only apply to take part if you’re happy with this.

So how do I sign up?

is this similar to a Kegel exerciser?

Signing up please. Would very much like to test this product as in the market for something like this. Not much improvement from Pilates & Yoga. Keen to find something focused.

I would like the opportunity to try this out. My daughter yesterday told me I should step up my pelvic floor exercises and I said I've been doing them for 40 years with minimal success. It was after the third full term pregnancy that the problem started so anything that helps would be brilliant.

I too have signed up to try this in a bid to hopefully avoid the operations for stress incontinence my younger sister has gone through. I am only (??) 55 and still feel that I am able to control my bladder quite well unless I have a particular bad coughing session or a huge sneeze. My sister started like this and it got much worse quite quickly. Keen to try anything to avoid an op in the future.

I would dearly like to try this product. Operations have not helped the problem which is mostly urge incontinence - worse if I am not well, for example with a cold.

Wendyg Mon 16-Oct-17 11:58:18

I would be very interested in signing up for this product. I am 56 years old and have had stress incontinence since giving birth to by second 9.5lb child 31 years ago. I have tried weighted cones but to be honest they just fell out!!

glammanana Mon 16-Oct-17 12:13:06

I would certainly be interested in trying out this product and have signed up,it sounds as though it could be the answer to my dreams after having treatment for many years for this problem including operations and botox injections to the neck of the bladder.

jan727 Mon 16-Oct-17 12:35:36

I would be keen to sign up. All my life I have worn pads. I had an operation in France which was amazing but it@s back to the sneeze and cough again now. Just recently I have started to wet myself again. Any help would be welcome!

Coolgran65 Mon 16-Oct-17 14:09:22

I'd like to try this. I've been suffering from urge/stress continence for a few years but got worse a year ago to the point where bladder control was difficult. There has been a little improvement following sessions with an incontinence nurse but the problem does still exist.
I wear pads every day, even when at home. Gi-normous things.

kayn Mon 16-Oct-17 14:22:30

I would love to be a tester for this product ..l have both stress and urge incontinence also fecal since my insides have been churned up by radiotherepy I have had bothBotox injections and collagen and have been told that they can do no more for me.

MamaCaz Mon 16-Oct-17 14:39:01

I've signed up too. I sought help for stress incontinence when I was thirty and was referred by my GP, but the consultant (male, of course) fobbed me off with a load of excuses for not doing an operation, yet offered no other solution beyond pelvic floor exercises, which i had already been doing for years without any improvement! Not surprisingly, the problem has got worse, not better, over the years.

hulahoop Mon 16-Oct-17 15:10:10

I would like to give it a try chemo as given me a irritated bladder .

Squiffy Mon 16-Oct-17 15:14:51

I’ve signed up, too. I like the idea of it being non-intrusive! It would be lovely if it works and I would be able to sneeze or cough with gay abandon!

swji1 Mon 16-Oct-17 16:07:02

I would like to sign up to test this product. Have suffered from urge incontinence for some time and it is starting to affects so much of my life. It is different from stress incontince and it is so difficult to control thoughts of going to the loo and having to wait!

Atqui Mon 16-Oct-17 16:38:36

I've read about this product.Apparently it has been used successfully across the channel . Having difficulty signing up though.

grandmac Mon 16-Oct-17 21:59:38

Have signed up for this as have had urinary and faecal incontinence for many years. Pelvic floor exercises don't seem to help.

glassortwo Thu 19-Oct-17 20:48:33

I have signed up as things are only going to get worse...god forbid!!!!

JessM Sat 21-Oct-17 16:38:39

Many women have not got the knack of doing pelvic floor exercises correctly. There is a wonderful Scottish physio called Elaine Miller who does stand-up comedy on this topic and is on a mission to get us doing them correctly. www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p05bmbt1
I have found her advice helpful. She's got a Facebook page, is on Youtube etc.

harrysgran Mon 04-Dec-17 19:31:41

Any idea how you give feedback on the product
