- ByStartupStory | October 22, 2025
Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is a common and significantly underreported women’s health condition affecting an estimated 1 in 12 women worldwide, with the true number likely much higher. This condition, where pelvic organs descend into or out of the vagina causing pain, discomfort, and emotional distress, profoundly impacts women’s quality of life, restricting their ability to engage fully in personal and professional roles.
