Gynecare mesh is a surgical synthetic mesh used to treat pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in women. POP and SUI occur when the pelvic and vaginal muscles and tissues become stretched and weakened, reducing support for nearby organs such as the bladder, urethra, bowel, and uterus. These muscles and tissues may weaken due to:
- Age
- Childbirth
- Hysterctomy
- Meopause
Gynecare Mesh Repair and Gynecare Mesh Complications
Although some women may be able to live with POP, others may suffer from symptoms such as pressure, pain, SUI, constipation, and sexual problems. In some cases, doctors may recommend vaginal mesh Gynecare repair surgery.
The vaginal mesh repair procedure consists of implanting a surgical synthetic mesh into the anterior vaginal wall to help support the surrounding organs including the bladder and urethra, among others. After surgery, many women experience improvements. Unfortunately, some women have reported Gynecare mesh complications allegedly caused by the vaginal mesh including the following:
- Pain
- Infection
- Bleeding
- Extrusion
- Urinary problems
