Abstract
An incontinence device is used to apply supporting pressure to an anterior wall of an inferior third of a vaginal canal in the approximate plane of a pubococcygeal muscle and ultimately to a urethra for controlling incontinence. The incontinence device includes a first member having a first end and second end, as well as a second member resiliently connected to the first member. The second member is biased outwardly from the first member to direct the first end of the first member toward the anterior wall of the vaginal canal in a manner providing a support structure transferring upward force for support of the urethra by the first end of the first member.
