Surgical Mesh Implant: I need info from women who've had it

I'm considering it, but I'm far from convinced it's a good idea. I'm aggrevated (that's definitely the word for my feeling) concerning my bladder leaking.

What I would like to know is

1] What type do you have (was it a skin graft kind or the mesh kind)?

2] How long have you had it?

3] Any side effects? Or negatives?

4] Would you recommend it to others?

Thank you for your info.

I use to be very active: riding bike, walking trails, nature hikes, etc. With this leakage, I often don't feel confident enough to do these things. Just researching my options.

Is there a surgical mesh implant that can do stuff with/to/by a person’s brain even if it is located below the eyes of said person’s head?

The word β€œstuff” means β€œanything brain-related” in this question.

The question is not article-based. The article is just to show how surgical mesh can be relevant to brain-related stuff. I specified β€œbelow the eyes” because that’s a location that most people would think that the mesh can’t have anything to do with the brain. The question: Can it?

A few months back I posted an image of my old pc, with a surgical mask up front, installed a new mesh filter in its place. Anywhoo, the mod is working well, system stays cool. reddit.com/gallery/o4w6ar

Did anyone here get the surgical mesh option? Is it worth it?

I had my first consultation yesterday.

When discussing things, they mentioned an option to stitch in surgical mesh to the underside of my breast to almost act as an internal bra, to keep everything supported while healing and prevent sagging.

It seems really appealing to me, but there is an extra charge for it.

Did anyone here get this? Were you happy with it?

Will surgical mesh work for a terrarium?

I’m wanting to make a closed terrarium with an entire self sustaining ecosystem. The only trouble I’m having is the mesh, will surgical mesh work? (The kind you wrap around your arm when you get hurt?) Or any resources around the house? Thank you in advance!

[shitpost] Does anyone know a urologist or other doctor that would be willing to donate a small amount of surgical mesh to save a beloved pet ducks life? It’s needed for her a hernia repair surgery.

I would be just so unbelievably grateful if anyone had some surgical mesh they would be willing to donate for my wonderful pet duck, petunia, so she could have a more successful chance at a hernia surgery.

We rescued petunia three years ago and she’s been our loving and beautiful pet ever since. She’s even been on the news!

She has her own bedroom and princess castle and we just adore her more than life.

She came down with a horrific hernia and will die without surgery to repair the hernia and a hysterectomy, but the veterinarian does not think he’ll be able to close and repair the hernia without some mesh.

If anyone had just a little bit they could spare or donate, or I’d be more than willing to pay for it, plus shipping and whatever you need for your troubles, I’d be so grateful. I’m in Florida.

Thank you so much.

Can someone explain why surgical mesh is ok to use in hernia repair but was completely banned from being used for (vaginal) pelvic floor repair by the FDA in 2019?

I’m not a doctor but I’m looking to better understand why surgical mesh would create complications in muscle tissue but not the other. I would imagine that mesh hernia repair would face the same mesh issues of shrinkage, dislodging, organ damage and infection.

Surgical/non surgical Treatments that Mesh best with HRT

Beard removal is far more feminizing above the neck than any other treatment and is all but mandatory for many folks to present the way that they want to.

After beard removal, assuming good progress with hair and facial feminization, what are the treatments that y'all seek most in terms of cosmetic treatments and helping HRT and your genetics? Chin/jaw reductions? Cheekbone and lip injections with filler?

My goal is to try all treatments and blog about them. It's much easier to do this with non-surgical treatments but many fear that they won't last which I will have to report on since I am only at the first few months of filler and toxins administration but so far so good. It's not cheaper than some surgeries but the amazing thing is that once the beard is gone, if we are stalling, filler can essentially take you from ugly step-sister to Cinderella in one day and in less than an hour. Toxins take 4 to 8 days to take full extent but they really un-age a gal's face. The results for some can really give you a lift if you are depressed about your breast growth or lack of facial feminization. At least try something if you have the means because the improvement can be staggering.

Also, anyone have experience with hairline lowering, brow lifts, lip lifts, forehead reductions, masseter reduction, hair transplants, butt implants, nose alteration or breast grafts? I would love to hear about it and your thoughts about whether you got good value or not. Surgical treatments are riskier and in my limited experience, many of us don't make good choices because we over-feminize our faces and almost certainly our breasts, by opting to go up too much in size via implants but a gal wants what she wants. To each her own but essentially only above the neck treatments are responsible for passing/being attractive but some of us might not want to pass for various reasons.

At some point or because we add or subtract a feature that alters classic facial beauty ratios surgical changes might might us appear more feminine but less attractive. It appears that almost all humans agree on which female adults are most beautiful so there are certain lines and proportions that aid in that for some of us.

Attaching Surgical/Latex Tubing Into Mesh

Does anyone have an idea on how I could form an air-tight mesh of surgical tubing? I need to make an inflatable system of interconnected tubes, preferably in a square mesh.

Edit for more detail: The tubing is for an inflatable, weight bearing, wearable device. We need the tubing to fill up to 1" of space, but also be compressible, so my group and I are considering using 3/4" surgical tubing. This is for an engineering class project and we are definitely open to other ideas for flexible tubing that can be formed into a flexible mesh.

Auto-immune and Surgical Mesh

RA Team, has anyone got any related stories around this article?

I’ve had a couple of hernia’a, and associated surgeries, I think I may have β€˜pulled one’ before Christmas and now have been diagnosed with RA. Would always be good to get to the root cause. Thoughts
