Uses of Transvaginal Mesh – POP and SUI

Pelvic Organ Prolapse (POP) occurs when the internal structures that support the pelvic organs such as the bladder, uterus and bowel, become so weak or stretched that the organs drop from their normal position and bulge or prolapse into the vagina.

While not life-threatening, women with POP often experience pelvic discomfort, disruption of their sexual, urinary, and defecating functions, and an overall decline in their quality of life.

Symptoms of POP include:

• Feeling as if something is actually falling out of the vagina

• Pulling or stretching in the groin area or a low backache

• Painful intercourse

• Vagina potting or bleeding

• Problems with bowel movements, such as constipation or needing to support the back of the vaginal wall in order to have a bowel movement.

• Urinary problems, such as involuntary release of urine or a frequent and/or urgent need to urinate, especially at night.

Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI), also known as effort incontinence or bladder leakage, is caused by insufficient strength of the pelvic floor muscles.

Millions of women of all ages are affected. In women, physical changes resulting from pregnancy, childbirth, and menopause often contribute to stress incontinence. Stress incontinence can worsen during the week before the menstrual period. The incidence of bladder leakage and the urge to urinate increases following menopause, similarly because of lowered estrogen levels. Urinary incontinence occurs during laughing, sneezing, coughing, and high impact abdominal exercising.

While very common, SUI is often dismissed as a natural part of aging or inevitable upshot of having children. However, if left untreated, SUI can put severe restrictions on a woman’s lifestyle.
