Pelvic floor support garments are specialized garments designed to provide gentle compression and support to the pelvic floor muscles while you are wearing the garment. This can help you live well with pelvic floor conditions like pelvic organ prolapse.

Pelvic floor support garments work by providing gentle compression to the pelvic area, which helps to support the pelvic floor muscles. Oftentimes with conditions like pelvic organ prolapse, the muscles and ligaments are overstretched. External support and gentle compression can help your body be better positioned while wearing the garment, which encourages improved comfort.

Pelvic floor support garments can be beneficial for women who have pelvic floor disorders, including pelvic organ prolapse. These support garments are meant for anyone who would wear a similar style pair of underwear but need the additional support for their pelvic floor.

Not all pelvic floor support garments are equally effective. An important aspect of the support is the uplifting feeling the garment provides. Our patent-pending support hammock works with our unique high-performance fabrics and garment design to provide the uplifting feeling for your pelvic floor. 

This garment was designed by women for women. We designed the garment based on real women’s bodies and wear-tested them with real people. Our first product line took over two years to refine and make the support and fit the best version it could be. Our founder, Lauren, wore the garment since the first prototype was ready and she continues to wear it today. 

We offer an extended size range that you will not find in other pelvic floor support garments. Additionally, we offer two variations (curvy and straight) of each style so that you can find a fit that is more tailored to you based on your butt shape. 

We are excited for you to give it a try and let us know what you think.

Yes, pelvic floor support garments can be worn all day, but it's recommended to take them off before going to bed.

Pelvic floor support garments can be worn just during activities when you know you need extra support. Sometimes they may not provide as much support if they are not worn at the start of the day. This will vary from person to person.

Yes, pelvic floor support garments can be worn during exercise to provide additional support to the pelvic floor muscles.

Pelvic floor support garments are designed to be comfortable to wear and should not cause any discomfort or irritation. It is important to find the right fit. If a garment is too tight, do not wear it. If you experience any discomfort while wearing a pelvic floor support garment, do not continue to wear it. It is recommended to consult your healthcare provider if you have any questions about what you are experiencing and whether a pelvic floor support garment is a good fit for you.

Pelvic floor support garments can be used during pregnancy to provide additional support to the pelvic floor muscles. It is important that you wear a pair that fits you well so that it provides optimal support and does not restrict your growing belly. We currently only offer a high waisted style that does not work well once your belly gets to a certain point because they are not stretchy enough. We are working on a lower waisted style that will accommodate a growing belly and work throughout your pregnancy versus just towards the first half.

Pelvic floor support garments can be used postpartum to provide additional support to the pelvic floor muscles. It is important that you wear a pair that fits you well so that it provides optimal support and does not restrict your recovering core and pelvic floor muscles.

Pelvic floor support garments do not cure urinary incontinence or pelvic organ prolapse, but they can help manage symptoms and improve quality of life while wearing the garment. It's important to seek medical advice for these conditions and learn how to properly wear pelvic floor support garments so that it works with you and helps mitigate symptoms.

After extensive customer testing, we learned that having two styles of the high waisted garment allowed us to find a better fit for more people because people’s body shapes are so unique. The only difference between the two styles is how they fit around your legs and back side. Each style has our integral support panels and patent-pending support hammock. You can refer to our sizing page for more information.

It's important to choose the right size for pelvic floor support garments to ensure they provide the right level of support. Please review our sizing page for more information to ensure you get the best fit.

We recommend a bundle of three - one to wash, one to wear and one spare.

Hem support garments are meant to be worn as underwear and washed after each use. We recommend they are washed on a delicate cycle in cold water and are laid flat or hung to dry. This will help preserve the integrity and life of the garment. For extra protection in the washing machine, we recommend using a lingerie bag. If you accidentally throw the garment in the dryer, it will not ruin the garment, but it will cause the fibers to wear out more quickly.

Our products are designed and manufactured in the United States. Currently, this is all taking place in central Texas.

The high waisted pelvic floor support garment is made from a special blend of fabrics chosen for their high performance, gentle compression, and moisture wicking properties. They are all soft and comfortable against the skin.

Similar to a hotel or rental car company, TryNow authorizes your card to ensure you have the funds available. When you checkout, an authorization for the full amount of your order is placed on your card to reserve funds if you choose to keep your items. An authorization is not the same as a charge in that our systems are strictly ensuring that the card that was provided at checkout is both valid and has the appropriate funds available to cover the cost of any items kept in the future.

TryNow will not charge you for any items until the end of your trial. We do place an authorization on your card for the total amount of your order. This is how we ensure that funds can be captured for items you keep -- it’s just like a hold that hotels or rideshare apps use, and it helps protect us against fraud. The way authorizations display on your statement varies by bank. Typically, authorizations are labeled as “pending” or they will not have a date associated with the charge, indicating that the charge has not yet been posted.

TryNow will charge and close your order after your trial + several days for any returns to process. At that point, the authorization will drop and you’ll be charged for the items you kept. Depending on your bank, it can take up to 24-48 hours for your statement to update.
