Cosm Medical is a Toronto-based medical device company. Our goal is to transform the way pelvic floor disorders are treated thanks to 3D printing, AI and cloud software, and Personalize Pelvic Health. Pelvic floor disorders, including pelvic organ prolapse, urinary and fecal incontinence, drastically decrease quality of life. These disorders are common (affects 1 in 4 adult women), growing (affects half of all women by 80 years of age) and underserved (stigmatized and traditionally low priority vs. other health concerns). The current non-surgical treatment for pelvic organ prolapse is the use of pessaries, which are intravaginal inserts that come in 100+ different sizes and shapes and are fit by trial and error, resulting in a relatively low success rate.

Cosm is commercializing the world’s first personalized pessary, Gynethotics™, or made-to-measure gynecological orthotics, improving patient satisfaction and outcomes compared to off-the-shelf devices, alongside a software platform to streamline the pessary practice.

Join our mission to Personalize Pelvic Health!
