Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas, TX.
Background: As the muscular and connective tissue components of the vagina are estrogen responsive, clinicians may recommend vaginal estrogen to optimize tissues preoperatively and as a possible means to reduce prolapse recurrence, but long-term effects of perioperative intravaginal estrogen on surgical prolapse management are uncertain.
Objective: This study aimed to compare the efficacy of perioperative vaginal estrogen vs placebo cream in reducing composite surgical treatment failure 36 months after native tissue transvaginal prolapse repair.
Study Design: This was an extended follow-up of a randomized superiority trial conducted at 3 tertiary US sites.

Although POP can be asymptomatic, if the bulge extends beyond the opening of the vagina, it can have a significant impact on a woman's quality of life. Findings include vaginal bulging toward or through the vaginal introitus that the patient may feel, palpate, or see with a mirror.

Can discussion with members of the public show philosophers where they have gone wrong? Leslie Cannold argues that it can in her 1995 paper 'Women, Ectogenesis and Ethical Theory', which investigates the ways in which women reason about abortion and ectogenesis (the gestation of foetuses in artificial wombs). In her study, Cannold interviewed female non-philosophers. She divided her participants into separate 'pro-life' and 'pro-choice' groups and asked them to consider whether the availability of ectogenesis would change their views about the morality of dealing with an unwanted pregnancy.
