- Abstract
Dear Editor, The social media platform YouTube has >1.5 billion users and is frequently used for patient/physician education [1]. Nearly 80% of pelvic floor patients report seeking health-related knowledge on social media platforms, such as YouTube [3]. Many POP videos on YouTube lack high-quality information, which is essential for decision-making, and have the potential to spread misinformative or biased information to health consumers.
