13. Mayer-Rokitansky-K üster-Hauser (MRKH) Syndrome: International Experiences with Vaginal Lengthening and Genitourinary Symptoms

M üllerian agenesis or MRKH occurs in 1 in ∼5,000 females. Currently, the worldwide experience of women with MRKH with regard to vaginal lengthening treatments (VL) and genitourinary (GU) symptoms is unknown, however, anecdotal data suggests that people with MRKH may experience a variety of genitou rinary (GU) symptoms. We conducted this study to describe the GU experiences of people with MRKH in the international community, specifically to identify trends in VL experience, prevalence of GU symptoms, and how symptoms may vary by VL treatment.
