Primary purpose: TREATMENT

Brief summary: The purpose of the study will be to assess the efficacy and safety of bladder BOTOX® for overactive bladder symptoms, such as urinary urgency and frequency, given at the time of prolapse surgery.

Detailed description: After being informed about the study and the potential risks, women scheduled for prolapse surgery will be screened for bothersome overactive bladder symptoms. Those that qualify and choose to enroll will be randomized to receive either bladder BOTOX® or a placebo at the time of their surgery. Neither the patient nor the investigators will know if the patient receives BOTOX® or a placebo. Subjects will complete questionnaires and bladder diaries both before and after surgery to determine efficacy and patient satisfaction. Potential adverse events, such as urinary tract infections and urinary retention, will be monitored throughout the study.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

* Women scheduled for prolapse surgery
* Bothersome OAB symptoms determined by a score of \>20 on the OAB-q SF
* Willingness to perform clean intermittent catheterization (CIC)
* Ability to follow study instructions and complete required follow up

Exclusion Criteria:

* Contraindications or allergy to Onabotulinumtoxin A
* Intravesical Onabotulinumtoxin A within 3 months of the planned surgery date
* Total body Onabotulinumtoxin A dose of ≥ 400 Units in the 3 months prior to the scheduled surgery date.
* Inability or unwillingness to self-catheterize
* Post-void residual ≥ 200mL
* Neurogenic bladder or other neurological diseases that may cause voiding dysfunction
* Concurrent use of other pharmacological treatment for the treatment of OAB symptoms at the time of prolapse repair surgery.
* Females who are pregnant, think they may be pregnant at the start of the study, planning a pregnancy during the active treatment phase of the study, or who are unwilling or unable to use a reliable form of contraception during the active treatment phase of the study.
* Inability to speak or read English

Primary outcomes:
measure: Change from baseline to postoperative weeks 6 to 12 in Overactive Bladder bother short form (OAB-q SF) questionnaire looking for a decrease of 10 points, which is the minimally important difference.

timeFrame: From baseline (time of enrollment) to 6-12 weeks postoperatively
measure: Change from baseline to postoperative weeks 6 to 12 in Patient Global Impression of Severity Scale (PGI-S).
timeFrame: From baseline (time of enrollment) to 6-12 weeks postoperatively
measure: Patient Global Impression of Improvement Scale (PGI-I) at 6 to 12 weeks postoperatively.
timeFrame: At 6-12 weeks postoperatively
