Importance: Although surgery for pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is generally associated with an improvement in sexual function, knowledge on specific changes is limited.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to describe and compare changes in sexual activity and function during a 5-year follow-up period after POP surgery.
Study Design: This was a nationwide cohort study of 3,515 women operated on for POP in 2015 in Finland.
