Sexual function

The Pelvic Organ Prolapse/Urinary Incontinence Sexual Questionnaire (PISQ-12) is a validated, condition-specific questionnaire will be used to evaluate sexual function in women with pelvic floor disorders. It is a shortened form of the original 31-item PISQ, specifically designed for sexually active women experiencing pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and urinary incontinence (UI). The questionnaire consists of 12 self-administered questions that assess the impact of pelvic floor health over the past six months. It spans three primary domains: Behavioral-Emotive Domain (Questions 1-4): Focuses on desire, excitement, frequency, and overall sexual satisfaction. Physical Domain (Questions 5-9): Evaluates physical symptoms during sex, such as pain, urine leakage, and restrictions due to fear or vaginal bulging. Partner-Related Domain (Questions 10-12): Addresses the partner's erectile or ejaculatory function as it impacts sexual activity

Long-term complications

Long-term complications including groin pain, urinary retention, vaginal shortening, infection, mesh erosion or need for mesh removal will be recorded.

Assesment of quality of life

The Incontinence Impact Questionnaire - Short Form (IIQ-7) will be used to evaluate the quality of life. It is a condensed version of the original 30-item questionnaire, designed to evaluate life impact over the past month across physical, emotional, and social life areas. The IIQ-7 consists of 7 self-administered items divided into four clinical domains: Physical Activity (Items 1 \& 2): Measures impact on household chores and physical recreation like walking or swimming. Travel (Items 3 \& 4): Evaluates restrictions on entertainment outings and traveling by car or bus more than 30 minutes from home. Social Relationships (Item 5): Assesses participation in social activities outside the home. Emotional Health (Items 6 \& 7): Tracks the burden on mental wellbeing, specifically feelings of nervousness, depression, or frustration
