Patient's question:
During this time, I often feel as if someone is pulling my lower abdomen downward. This sensation is particularly noticeable when I'm squatting. After checking at the hospital, they said it's uterine prolapse. I'm very worried. Could you please tell me: How can uterine prolapse be treated most effectively?Doctor's answer:
General symptoms of uterine prolapse usually include a sensation of something falling down (a feeling that something is about to drop out from the lower abdomen), accompanied by chronic lower back and waist pain. In severe cases, it can affect the bladder and rectum, leading to symptoms such as frequent urination, incomplete urination, or difficulty in bowel movements.1. For grade I uterine prolapse, nutritional support should be enhanced, heavy physical labor should be avoided, and regular perineal exercises should be performed to improve pelvic floor muscle tone and achieve complete recovery.
2. Insertion of a pessary. A pessary is a device that supports the uterus and vaginal walls, keeping them in place within the vagina without prolapse. It is suitable for grade I and II uterine prolapse and should be removed during menstruation and pregnancy.
3. Surgical treatment.
