The transvaginal mesh procedure that was thought to be a ground-breaking solution for several serious medical conditions has caused multiple problems for thousands of women who have had the procedure done.

- Chronic infection
- Pain
- Urinary problems
- Bleeding
- Discomfort
- Pain while having sex
Many women were embarrassed to talk about their condition, and some were reluctant to come forward, but now more women are experiencing serious medical difficulties from a procedure that was supposed to help them. More and more women are now coming forward with various complaints, some very severe.
Uses for the Mesh
Transvaginal mesh was designed to repair organ prolapse and give support to weakened or damaged tissue. The mesh itself was originally used to repair hernias and had been used successfully for years. Because of this, the mesh qualified for the FDA’s 510(k) fast track program and was never tested for use with POP or SUI. Approximately 30 companies have supplied this product to the medical community.
Victim’s Rights
To date, thousands of women who have undergone the transvaginal mesh procedure have suffered with a wide number of painful symptoms.
