Limitations and strengths
This study was not without limitations. The low number of patients who
agreed to participate in this study impacted the statistical power of
the findings. Limiting participation to ages younger than 35 years
resulted in our findings being inapplicable to older patients and
patients with overt pelvic organ prolapse. Nevertheless, this was also a
strength of this study because we intended to determine whether USL
laxity could be a risk factor associated with vulvodynia in young women
without overt pelvic organ prolapse.
