Detailed Description

Female pregnant patients in their 2nd trimester will be evaluated for vaginal elasticity using vaginal tactile imaging. Vaginal elasticity will also be evaluated during the 3rd trimester and 6 weeks postpartum.

Patients will be recruited and sign a consent form. Assessment of vaginal elasticity via vaginal tactile imaging will be performed at 3 different points:

  • During the 2nd trimester.
  • During the 3rd trimester.
  • 6 weeks postpartum. Every patient will serve as her own control. Demographic, gynecologic and obstetric history will be obtained from patients' electronic files.
