Perifit Review: Gamified Kegel Trainer

Perifit gamifies Kegel training: you squeeze to control video games. It's the fun alternative to clinical trainers.

What Perifit Offers

Device: Silicone sensor inserted vaginally, Bluetooth connected.

App: Video games controlled by pelvic floor squeezes (shooting games, puzzle games, etc.).

Philosophy: Fun + engagement > clinical authority.

Price: ~£100 (roughly 40% of Elvie's cost).

The Gamification Approach

Different from Elvie: Elvie is clinical/professional. Perifit is game-focused.

Games included:

• Puzzle games (shape matching)
• Shooting games (target practice via squeezes)
• Racing games (controlled by contraction strength)

Why games matter: Engagement increases consistency. If training is fun, you do it more.

App and Device Quality

App design: Colourful, game-heavy, less professional than Elvie.

Device: Similar quality silicone sensor to Elvie. No aesthetic difference.

Game variety: Decent range keeps training interesting.

Tracking: Progress tracked, but less detailed than Elvie's graphs.

Does It Actually Work?

Yes, if you use it. Like Elvie and basic balls, pelvic floor training works if consistent.

The gamification advantage: Games may drive higher consistency (more likely to use regularly if it's fun).

The science: Less clinical research than Elvie, but functional results reported by users.

Price vs Elvie

Perifit: ~£100 Elvie: ~£250

For the 50% savings: You lose clinical credibility and professional app design. You gain gamification and fun.

Who Should Buy

People wanting fun/gamification: If game-based training appeals, Perifit is excellent.

Budget-conscious: 50% cheaper than Elvie with similar core function.

Users who prefer engagement over clinical authority: Games keep you consistent.

Not recommended if: You have medical issues requiring clinical-grade solution (go with Elvie).

Perifit vs Elvie: The Choice

Elvie: Clinical, research-backed, professional, £250.

Perifit: Fun, gamified, affordable, ~£100.

Same pelvic floor outcome: Both produce measurable strength improvement in 8+ weeks.

Different philosophy: Clinical authority vs fun engagement.

Verdict

Perifit is excellent if you want affordable smart training with a fun twist.

For general wellness pelvic floor training, it's better value than Elvie. The games make training engaging, which drives consistency.

For postpartum or medical issues, Elvie's clinical backing is worth the premium.

For everyone else wanting to strengthen their pelvic floor affordably and enjoyably, Perifit is the smart choice.
