Rise in disposable income and growth in demand for preventive measures against urinary incontinence present various opportunities for manufacturers of the vaginal slings market, where the technologically advanced vaginal sling product offers profitable opportunities for the expansion of the market. Moreover, increase in the number of hysterectomy cases, large number of women with early onset of menopause, and increase in obese population propel the market growth as women suffering from aforementioned health conditions are more susceptible to urinary incontinence.
