Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried it might affect fertility, and I also feel extremely cold and afraid of the cold. How is uterine prolapse best treated?Doctor's answer:
Uterine prolapse, also known as uterine descent, occurs when the inner wall of the uterus cannot contract and recover 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 heaviness or a feeling as if something is about to fall out from the lower abdomen. It can also cause chronic lower back and waist pain. In more severe cases, it may affect the bladder and rectum, leading to frequent urination, incomplete urination, or difficulties with bowel movements.
Whether someone has uterine prolapse needs to be diagnosed by a doctor through relevant examinations. It is recommended to visit a hospital for a thorough check-up.
There are several treatment methods for gynecological diseases, but the specific approach depends on the patient's condition. Therefore, it is advised that patients seek diagnosis and treatment as soon as symptoms appear.
