According to the American Urological Association, urinary incontinence is a common complication of prolapse bladder surgery. It can take several weeks or even months for the bladder to regain its normal function after surgery. However, it is important to note that the recovery process varies from person to person and depends on various factors such as age, overall health, and extent of the surgery
