Vaginal mesh ban can be lifted with changes, NICE says

Vaginal mesh ban can be lifted with changes, NICE says Controversial vaginal mesh implants can be offered again on the NHS in England once certain conditions are met, health watchdog NICE has said.

Some women have been left unable to walk, work or have sex after having the implants, which are used to treat pelvic organ prolapse and incontinence.

Use of vaginal mesh was halted across the UK last year amid safety concerns. BBC News
