Abstract
An incontinence treatment device includes a band attached to a pendant. The band is implantable around a portion of a urethra and has a first magnet connected to a first end portion of the band and a second magnet connected to a second end portion of the band. The pendant is connected to and extends from the band. The pendant has a shape that configures the pendant to be implantable into a scrotum and a thickness that configures the pendant to be implantable into a labia. The pendant encloses a switch and a power source that are electrically coupled to the first magnet and the second magnet. The switch has an on position to constrict the band around the urethra and an off position in which substantially zero current is provided to decouple the first magnet from the second magnet.
