Here is a set of brass vaginal cones used for progressive weight training of the pelvic floor musculature designed to treat the problem of female urinary stress incontinence. Research has shown that the use of these vaginal cones is not as effective as standard pelvic floor exercises for this disorder and, consequently, are no longer used (Bo, 1999).
