Summary

This study will follow 200 women who are either taking GLP-1 weight loss drugs or undergoing bariatric surgery. Researchers want to see how these treatments change pelvic floor symptoms like incontinence and prolapse. Participants do not need to have any pelvic floor symptoms to join. The goal is to help doctors recommend the best weight loss option for women with these issues.
