Prolapse Surgery

How is prolapse surgery performed?

Prolapse surgery can either be performed vaginally or through a robotic (laparoscopic) approach. Your doctor will help you make an informed decision regarding the best type of surgery for you.

Is mesh used in surgery for prolapse?

Mesh may or may not be used during prolapse surgery depending on the type of prolapse you have and the surgical approach your doctor performs. Your doctor will discuss surgical options with and without mesh to ensure you are well-informed.

Will I have you stay over night after surgery?

Length of stay depends on what type of surgery you undergo. Some surgeries are done as an outpatient (go home the same day), while others require a one night overnight stay in the hospital.
