INTRODUCTION: Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) has a general incidence of > 10% in the female population of the Western world. The pessary is a silicone device, it is inserted into the vagina to provide support to the pelvic organs. It is used as a conservative treatment to improve prolapse symptoms. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate urination among women with a pessary and women without a pessary and to evaluate the effectiveness of pessary treatment in pelvic organ prolapse with voiding difficulties. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A prospective and quasi-experimental observational study of an analytical nature was conducted. It will consist of analyzing the results of treatment with vaginal pessaries in women with POP. A total of 60 women were chosen as a sample of the study, 50% were placed with the pessary. PGI test and uroflujometry were used. RESULTS: The placement of pessary shows how there is a significant correlation between the quality of life of women and urination. CONCLUSIONS: There is a relationship between the improvement of the quality of life and the improvement of the mycological dynamics of women in pessary treatment. However, the improvement in the quality of life cannot be attributed solely to the improvement of urinary flow, but also to the well-being caused by the reduction of POP.
