The vagina is tubular and leads from the outside to the uterus.The front wall of the vagina borders on the bladder and urethra.When you have to pass water, the urine flows from the bladder via the urethra and out.
During the operation, an incision was made in the front wall of your vagina from the inside of the vagina. Then the tissue between your vagina and bladder was tightened up. This also slightly lifts the bladder.
