What the Transvaginal Mesh Patch Does:

Implanted and stretched across the vaginal wall, the patch help support  internal orgams that were once supported by the vaginal wall until a significant stretching, such as during childbirth, may have damaged the tissue.

What You Should Do:

• If suffering severe complications, contact your doctor at once and seek medical attention.
