Support our fellow member Ariel Zilberlicht and his team and contribute to urogynecological knowledge and practice by completing the survey on Physician Dilemma and Attitude Towards Surgical Treatment and Subsequent Mode of Delivery for Women with SUI.

Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is a common bothersome condition that negatively affects women's quality of life worldwide. One of the major contributing risk factors for SUI is pregnancy and childbirth. The unique group of women who have not completed their family (i.e.childbearing) and seek surgical treatment for SUI impose a great dilemma on their physicians. Currently, there is limited data regarding the mode of delivery following anti-incontinence surgical repair.

The survey aims to determine physicians' attitudes towards surgical treatment and its consequences for women of reproductive age who desire childbearing capacity.

On behalf of Ariel Zilberlicht and his Research team, we thank you very much for your collaboration by filling out the survey, which only takes a few moments of your time.
