Pelvic pain and lower urinary tract symptoms; long‐term comparison between women with and without mid‐urethral sling insertion

open access: yesActa Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, Volume 105, Issue 7, Page 1350-1357, July 2026.
Women aged 50 or above, who have undergone mid‐urethral sling surgery 10–14 years earlier for stress urinary incontinence, report more pelvic pain than age‐matched women. Other lower urinary tract symptoms also seem to be more prevalent in women 50 years or above with previous surgery.

Self‐reported pelvic floor dysfunction 12 months after an obstetric anal sphincter injury in relation to maternal body mass index

open access: yesActa Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, Volume 105, Issue 7, Page 1200-1209, July 2026.
Self‐reported dyspareunia one year after an obstetric anal sphincter injury (OASI) is less common among overweight and obese women than in normal weight. The risk for anal incontinence does not differ between the BMI groups one year after an OASI, while the risk for UI increases with increasing BMI.
