Half of women who had vaginal mesh inserted reported impact on physical activities

The study found 39.3% of women did not report problems with stress urinary incontinence, saying this is a “significant decrease” on the 93.4% who said this six weeks after their operation.

A study of women who had vaginal mesh inserted 20 years ago in Ireland has found half reported some impact on physical activities from urinary problems, and 8.7% said it has a large impact.

Their median age was 67, and 92.4% said they would have the procedure again.
