Patient's question:
I always feel like something is falling down in my stomach, and I often feel the urge to use the restroom. It's an indescribable feeling. It's okay during the day, but it becomes even more uncomfortable at night when I'm sleeping.Doctor's answer:
Uterine prolapse occurs when a woman has given birth multiple times or experiences vaginal laceration during childbirth without proper stitching, especially if she is underweight, making her more susceptible to uterine prolapse. It's best to visit a good hospital's gynecology department for a check-up. I have treated many patients, and doctors in other hospitals always prescribe over a thousand yuan worth of supplements, claiming they need to be taken for three months. However, after three months, the condition still hasn't improved. When these patients come to my clinic for examination, it turns out they don't actually have uterine prolapse but rather just simple cervical hypertrophy. Moreover, most cases are caused by mycoplasma or chlamydia infections. After treating the primary infection, I tell the patients that the enlarged cervix will remain as is and should not shrink. However, later on, after two or three years of treatment, when they come in for check-ups due to other reasons, they discover that the previously enlarged cervix has significantly shrunk. So, it's not that it cannot shrink, but rather that it requires a considerable amount of time.
