Uterine repositors

Description

Repositor by Sharp and Smith. Male physicians often attributed various women’s disorders such as pain, dysmenorrhea, and mood swings (called "hysteria) to an abnormally placed, or “dropped” uterus, and the obvious therapy was to reposition this organ with an instrument called a repositor. Below is another example, that one made by Tiemann.
