Patient's question:
For a while, I felt like something was falling out of the vagina, but it went away after sitting for a while. When I put my hand into the vagina and touched the cervix, it might only be about 2 centimeters away from the vaginal opening. Is this uterine prolapse? How is uterine prolapse treated best?Doctor's answer:
Uterine prolapse, also known as uterine prolapse, occurs when the inner wall of the uterus cannot contract and return properly, bending into the vagina. In severe cases, it may extend outside the body. The general symptoms of uterine prolapse include at least a sensation of something falling down (a feeling as if something is about to drop from the lower abdomen). It can also cause chronic lower back pain, and in severe cases, it may affect the bladder and rectum, leading to frequent urination, incomplete emptying of the bladder, or difficulty in bowel movements. For severe cases, surgical intervention may need to be considered. It is not to be diagnosed with gynecological conditions; patients should believe that they can overcome the illness. As long as the condition is detected early and treated promptly, the chances of alleviating symptoms and recovery are very high.
