1. A method of conforming an overwrap to a pessary device, the method comprising: a. providing a non-expanding pessary device comprising a longitudinal axis, a transverse axis, and an outer surface;b. providing an overwrap;c. placing the non-expanding pessary device in contact with the overwrap, wherein the overwrap covers at least a portion of the non-expanding pessary device outer surface area; andd. manipulating the overwrap to conform to the non-expanding pessary device;wherein the step of manipulating the overwrap to conform to the non-expanding pessary device further comprises creating one or more attachments points between the pessary device and the overwrap and wherein the pessary device is attached to the overwrap at one or more of the attachment points. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the overwrap is elastic. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein the attachments points are created by heat, adhesives, friction, mechanical means, and/or combinations thereof. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein the attachment points form quadrants. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein the attachment points form patters along the longitudinal and/or transverse axis. 6. A method of conforming an overwrap to a pessary device, the method comprising: a. providing a non-expanding pessary device comprising a longitudinal axis, a transverse axis, and an outer surface:b. providing an overwrap;c. placing the non-expanding pessary device in contact with the overwrap, wherein the overwrap enrobes the non-expanding pessary device outer surface area; andd. manipulating the overwrap to conform to the non-expanding pessary device;wherein the step of manipulating the overwrap to conform to the object further comprises creating one or more attachment points between the pessary device and the overwrap and wherein the pessary device is attached to the overwrap at one or more of the attachment points. 7. The method of claim 6, wherein the overwrap is elastic. 8. The method of claim 6, wherein the attachment points are created by heat, adhesives, friction, mechanical means, and/or combinations thereof. 9. A method of conforming an overwrap to a pessary device, the method comprising: a. providing a pessary device comprising a first end, a second end, a central portion, and a transverse axis;b. providing an overwrap;c. placing the pessary device in contact with the overwrap, wherein the overwrap enrobes the pessary device;d. providing one or more cords; ande. manipulating the overwrap using the one or more cords such that a portion of the overwrap contacts the central portion of the pessary device and the one or more cords wrap around the portion of the overwrap contacting the central portion of the pessary device;wherein at least one of the one or more chards is attached to itself or tied around the central portion of the pessary device. 10. The method of claim 9, wherein the central portion of the pessary device has a smaller diameter than the first end of the pessary device and the second end of the pessary device. 11. The method of claim 9, wherein the one or more cords comprises cotton, cellulose, rayon, polyolefins, nylon, silk, polytetrafluoroethylene, Teflon, wax, or combinations thereof.
