DS>Pessary is an old fashioned name for a diaphram.
MD+Actually, it's an old fashioned name for a suppository.
A pessary as I know it is a plastic coated device inserted in the
{*filter*} to support a uterus which is dropping down out of the {*filter*}.
That term is called uterine prolapse.
They look like a twisted wire sort of like a mobius strip but not
exactly.
I do not know if a pessary was the term used for a suppository or
a diaphram in a bygone era.
