Vaginal SURGERY
Vaginal surgery is a non-invasive approach performed without any external incisions. It is low risk surgery and outpatient.
Vaginal surgery can treat uterine prolapse, vaginal prolapse, childbirth trauma, stress incontinence, fistulae, diverticulum, dyspareunia, and many other pelvic issues.
Vaginal surgery is also performed for cosmetic reasons, such as vaginal rejuvenation and labiaplasty.
Vaginal SURGERY WITHOUT MESH
While we are ever-changing to adapt to the latest advances in surgery and medicine, we only perform mesh-free surgery. From repairs of vaginal prolapse, to placement of a sling for stress incontinence, there will be no synthetic materials implanted into the body. We have been mesh free since 2022, and our data shows the same efficacy without mesh as it did with mesh repairs.
VAGINAL HYSTERECTOMY
A vaginal hysterectomy is a surgical procedure that removes the uterus and cervix. A hysterectomy does not include the removal of the fallopian tubes and ovaries. Ovaries produce hormones: not the uterus. Removing the uterus does not mean the woman must take hormone supplements. If indicated, removal of the uterus and the ovaries is called a hysterectomy with a bilateral oophorectomy.
Not every patient with prolapse requires a hysterectomy. Uterine preservation is a viable option for many women. However, a hysterectomy may be recommended to help restore quality of life to the patient as a result of a diagnosis of other pelvic complications.
SURGERY FOR PAIN WITH INTERCOURSE (DYSPAREUNIA)
Depending on the cause for pain, there are several simple procedures that can be performed to lessen or eliminate painful intercourse.
““If a hysterectomy is required, the non-invasive vaginal approach with no incisions is the best solution for the patient. Just like it sounds, it’s non-invasive to the body without cutting any other tissues to perform the hysterectomy, this translates to a quicker recovery. Additionally, childbirth trauma from vaginal delivery can be repaired at the same time during vaginal hysterectomy.” ”
