A study comparing two surgical repairs for vaginal laxity
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests two surgical methods to tighten the vaginal opening and improve comfort during sex. It is for women who have stopped having sex because the vagina feels too loose.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are female and between 18 and 80 years old.
- Your vaginal opening measures 4 cm or more when relaxed (a standard check).
- You are sexually active and don't have pain during penetration, but you stopped sex because the vagina felt too loose.
- You have a vaginal prolapse (a bulge or sagging).
- You are planning to have surgery to fix this looseness.

This trial tests a new material made from donated human tissue to repair pelvic organ prolapse. It may help women with certain types of prolapse who have not had prior pelvic surgery.
This study tests whether using vaginal compression (a supportive device) after prolapse surgery helps with healing and recovery. Prolapse happens when pelvic organs shift downward; this surgery repairs that. The trial compares standard recovery to recovery with added compression support.
This trial studies a way to repair vaginal tissues to help symptoms of “front” pelvic organ prolapse. It may be an option for people 50+ who can feel or see a bulge and are able to attend follow-up visits.
This study compares two minimally invasive surgical techniques to repair severe dropping of the uterus or vaginal vault (the top of the vagina). Both procedures use small cameras and instruments, and the trial aims to understand which approach works better and how quickly surgeons learn each technique.
This study tests how well laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery fixes moderate to severe prolapse in the front or middle of the vagina. It is for women who have not had prior prolapse surgery through the belly or with vaginal mesh.
This trial compares two surgical options to treat a type of vaginal prolapse where the top of the vagina (apical area) has dropped. It may help find which approach works better and has fewer long-term problems for people who’ve had prior prolapse surgery and a hysterectomy.
