Perifit 12+

Severe Pelvic Floor Dysfunction was the diagnosis. “Did they use forceps when your son (now 50) was delivered?” Don’t worry I’m not going to tell you the details, relax. I do have to have some reconstructive surgery and I really did try the Pelvic Floor Therapy but the therapist seemed really uncomfortable about doing the therapy which made me really uncomfortable. Basically, I had to get up at 5:00 am twice a week so she could hand me one of these only SHE was the one who got to watch the pretty butterfly and just shouted “squeeze” or “release” as though she were doing some professional science stuff and looking at complex data. Eventually I saw what was on the screen. It wasn’t Perefit exactly, but same principle. Anyway, I just started using mine and how much fun is this? I expected to do really badly when I started but apparently my muscles aren’t as bad as they made it sound. What a wonderful product! Excellent to be able to do this therapy relaxing in front of the TV rather than laying on a hard table at 6:00 am being shouted at by a woman who doesn’t seem to want to be there anymore than you do! I actually read about Perefit in a laugh out loud fun article written by a trans woman who used it to train her new vaginal muscles. She was really funny about doing the work of her transition by playing video games with the new muscle configuration. Ordered mine immediately. Yay! ☺️

Great product! I use it for 5-10 minutes a few times a week. There was a period where I was having incontinence issues. My Perifit arrived recently and I’ve already noticed improvement within this short time!! Regular kegals are great for what I’ve learned is the “superficial” part of the pelvic floor, but unless you know how to activate your entire pelvic floor, they don’t help the “deeper” area where the tip of the Perifit reaches and helps you train, which is largely where the incontinence issue lies. I like that it tracks your progress and uses Bluetooth to connect to an app/game. The game is SUPER simple, but it’s cool to literally use your vagina to control it! There’s also a manual feature that helps you to focus on training your “deep” area. Worth the price! Didn’t talk to my gyno for an opinion or advice so I can’t speak for anyone who does that first. The battery is also guaranteed for a long while and their warranty/customer service is pretty good! I say go for it.

I love this device! It’s very sensitive and it’s been extremely helpful in isolating the correct muscles for me. The games are fun and responsive, with increasing levels of difficulty and well calibrated hit boxes.

My complaint is with the rest of the app. You can’t click on a game to play it, you have to manually select and then back out a screen to play. It doesn’t tell you how long you’ve been playing for in a given session, or notify you when you’ve met your daily goal. It has a random game function, but it only randomizes the first click, after which you’re stuck playing that same game repeatedly or backing out and starting a new session each time (which messes up the statistics). And lastly, there’s a stat that says “safe zone” on it, but no indicator anywhere as to what that means. Mine is well outside the marked safe range but I have no clue how I might change that or what the consequences are if I don’t.

None of these are deal breakers by any means! I still love it, just wanted to leave notes for potential improvement.
