Pelvic Organ Prolapse treatments: what would Gynaecologists opt for?

A quantitative questionnaire based study was carried out to assess how acceptable the various treatments for pelvic organ prolapse are to female obstetrics and Gynaecology trainees and consultants. Uptake for vaginal pessaries was low. Majority of respondents would accept conventional surgery for primary treatment and seem to be less keen to have vaginal mesh implants for surgery. This study highlights the complexity of decision making for treatment for prolapse even for group of women who are relatively verse with the subject. It is therefore absolute essential to have insight into how women perceive the acceptability of these treatments and their associated complications.
