Prevention and treatment of pelvic floor dysfunction (literature review)

Abstract

   Treatment and prevention of pelvic floor dysfunction (PFD) depends on the degree of genital prolapse, possible conditions associated with it, the patient's age, her complaints and medical history. Symptomatic and complicated genital prolapse should be treated. Patients with PFD can be managed both conservatively and surgically. When selected correctly, the effectiveness of a pessary is 60-80%. Surgical interventions with or without mesh implants are strictly individual. The use of a mesh prosthesis has proven to be a more reliable method in relation to relapse of the disease. Preventive measures for PFD should be carried out at the initial stages of the disease, while the patient's motivation and lifestyle modifications are important.
