Femoral hernia

As I haven’t gotten any replies (except this strange one above….) I would like to add more questions to my first post. Being aware of my age (56), and that I have a femoral hernia- would a progrip mesh be necessary? Have there been problems associated with their use? Dr Towfigh recommended a light weight mesh for woman of lower weight – also acknowldging there are other variables that may not make light weight always the best choice. Since I am 115-120 lbs, I am concerned about using the progrip, but it is a choice my surgeon will have to make after he knows what he is dealing with during the operation. He wants to use a mesh that will do what it is suppose to do and not risk further hernia reoccurrences.

Can anyone give their advise as a surgeon or as a person who has had progrip used in their surgery? Or who has had light weight used with long term success?

Thank you.
