Female Sexual Dysfunction (FSD) is a complex biopsychosocial phenomenon. Screening, identifying and managing urogenital and sexual symptoms often result in significant improvement in women's quality of life. Providers must proactively question patients about possible presence of FSD. When a sexual problem is present, identify the type of FSD, counsel patients on the appropriate approaches to treatment. No single therapeutic approach is effective in treating all types of FSD.

Pelvic Organ Prolapse Repair Using Robotic-Assisted Sacral Hysterocolpopexy vs Vaginal Surgery with the Uphold™ System: 1-Year Clinical Outcomes.
Int Urogynecol J
January 2025
Department of Clinical Sciences, Division of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Karolinska Institutet Danderyd Hospital, SE- 182 88, Stockholm, Sweden.
Introduction And Hypothesis: The aim of the study was to compare clinical outcomes when using robotic-assisted sacral hysterocolpopexy (RASC) and vaginal surgery using the Uphold™ Vaginal Support System mesh for pelvic organ prolapse repair.
Methods: This was a nonrandomized, prospective, multicenter study in which 72 women underwent RASC, and 73 Uphold™ surgery, for apical prolapse (POP-Q C ≥ stage II). Anatomical outcomes were assessed using the Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification (POP-Q) system.
Opinions of Gynecologists About Indication and Technique of Perineoplasty.

December 2024
Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Amsterdam UCM, 1105 AZ Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
Perineoplasty is a frequently performed procedure as part of prolapse surgery. Despite its frequent use, there is a lack of evidence on the optimal indication, surgical technique and adverse outcomes. We intended to gain insight into the current opinions on indications and techniques of perineoplasty among (uro)gynecologists worldwide.

Int Urogynecol J
January 2025
Female bladder pain syndrome (FBPS), previously known as interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome, is a life-altering and morbid condition that occurs primarily in female patients and can be variable in presentation. Given the absence of pathognomonic symptoms and sensitive diagnostic tests, significant symptomatic overlap with numerous other pelvic conditions (such as pelvic floor tension myalgia or endometriosis) occurring in women makes diagnosis of FBPS challenging. The frequent co-occurrence of FBPS with other pain conditions and functional somatic syndromes further complicates diagnosis and management.

Importance: Forty percent of patients with urogynecologic mesh pain complications are taking narcotics.
Objectives: We aimed to compare comorbidities and pain scores between patients with and without narcotic use and assess postoperative narcotic use rates.
Study Design: This was a secondary analysis of a prospective cohort study of patients undergoing urogynecologic mesh removal.
