Patient's question:
I am a 40-year-old woman and don't know why I suddenly got sick. I also feel uncomfortable. Please ask: What are the common symptoms of uterine prolapse?Doctor's answer:
Uterine prolapse is specifically divided into three degrees. Generally, the symptoms of the first degree are not very obvious, and it may require an ultrasound examination to detect it. It is characterized by the descent of the uterus to a level above the level of the sacral promontory at the external cervical os, while the cervix and uterine body still remain within the vagina. The second degree can be detected when the cervix has already prolapsed outside the vagina. The third degree is the most severe, where the entire uterine body, cervix, and all of the anterior vaginal wall are prolapsed out. It is recommended to seek timely treatment to avoid more serious consequences.
