How is uterine prolapse classified?

Patient's question:

Sure, I can help with that. Please provide the content you want to be translated.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, according to the degree of prolapse, it can be divided into 3 degrees:
  I degree: The uterus descends, and the cervix is located between the ischial spines and the vaginal orifice. During a vaginal examination, the cervix is within 4 cm of the vaginal orifice.
  II degree: Refers to the cervix having prolapsed outside the vaginal orifice, while the uterus or part of the uterus remains inside the vagina. However, due to the broad scope, mild cases may only involve the cervix prolapsing outside the vaginal orifice, while severe cases may involve the cervix being elongated, leading to the elongated cervix and the entire vaginal wall prolapsing outside the vaginal orifice.
  II degree uterine prolapse is further divided into mild and severe types.
  Mild II degree: The cervix and part of the anterior vaginal wall prolapse outside the vaginal orifice.
  Severe II degree: The cervix, part of the uterus, and most or all of the anterior vaginal wall prolapse outside the vaginal orifice.
  III degree: Refers to the entire uterus, cervix, and the entire anterior vaginal wall as well as part of the posterior vaginal wall prolapsing outside the vaginal orifice.
