Association Between Striae and Pelvic Organ Prolapse in Women: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

This study recommends that stretch marks may be used as a helpful indicator of the risk for POP. Evaluation of striae as a risk factor and screening tool for detecting women at risk for the development of POP should be addressed in future well-designed studies. However, there is a need for high-quality studies in this field owing to the low quality of evidence.
