In 2011 study released by the Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology Canada (JOGC) on Transvaginal Mesh Device procedures said, "Until adequate effectiveness and safety evidence is available, the use of new TVM devices for [POP and SUI] repair should be considered experimental and restricted to use in investigative trials."

The most frequent complications, other than POP and SUI, include erosion through vaginal epithelium, infection, pain, and urinary problems. There are other reports of bowel, bladder, and blood vessel perforation during. There reports are a result of sexual intercourse. In some cases, vaginal scarring and mesh erosion led to a significant decrease in patient quality of life due to pain, discomfort, and even embarrassment.
