Abstract
Introduction and hypothesis: This manuscript is a part of the International Urogynecology Consultation (IUC) on pelvic organ prolapse (POP) chapter three, committee three, on the impact of lifestyle modifications (i.e., weight loss, treatment of constipation, activity restriction, etc.) on the prevention and treatment of POP.
Materials and methods: An international group containing ten female pelvic medicine specialists and one university-based medical librarian performed a systematic search of the literature in Medline using the MeSH terms: pelvic organ prolapse (ID: D056887), cystocele (ID: D052858), uterine prolapse (ID: D014596), rectocele (ID: D020047), and women (ID: D014930) to identify studies addressing lifestyle modifications as prevention or treatment for POP on 10/18/21. Relevant studies were included in this review.
Results: A total of 18,483 studies were identified in the initial literature search; 187 full-text articles were deemed pertinent and independently reviewed and double-screened by ten reviewers. After full-text review, information from 86 articles was included in this review.
Conclusion: Women may consider various lifestyle modifications to help prevent and treat POP, even if it is challenging to quantify the efficacy of these interventions.
期刊介绍:
The International Urogynecology Journal is the official journal of the International Urogynecological Association (IUGA).The International Urogynecology Journal has evolved in response to a perceived need amongst the clinicians, scientists, and researchers active in the field of urogynecology and pelvic floor disorders. Gynecologists, urologists, physiotherapists, nurses and basic scientists require regular means of communication within this field of pelvic floor dysfunction to express new ideas and research, and to review clinical practice in the diagnosis and treatment of women with disorders of the pelvic floor. This Journal has adopted the peer review process for all original contributions and will maintain high standards with regard to the research published therein. The clinical approach to urogynecology and pelvic floor disorders will be emphasized with each issue containing clinically relevant material that will be immediately applicable for clinical medicine. This publication covers all aspects of the field in an interdisciplinary fashion
