The Success Rate of Hong Kong Chinese Women with Pelvic Organ Prolapse in Pessary Self-Management: a Multi-Centered Prospective Study

PSM is a highly viable and successful strategy for Chinese women, with a success rate comparable with Western populations. Key factors for success include younger age, higher education, milder prolapse, and the use of a larger pessary. These findings support the early introduction of PSM to suitable patients to enhance patient empowerment and optimize conservative POP management.

Abstract

PSM is a highly viable and successful strategy for Chinese women, with a success rate comparable with Western populations. Key factors for success include younger age, higher education, milder prolapse, and the use of a larger pessary. These findings support the early introduction of PSM to suitable patients to enhance patient empowerment and optimize conservative POP management.
