Types of Prolapse and Treatments

Pelvic Organ Prolapse

Pelvic organ prolapse occurs when one or more of the pelvic organs, such as the bladder, uterus, or rectum, slip down from their normal position into the vagina due to weakened pelvic floor muscles. This condition can lead to symptoms like a feeling of pressure in the pelvis, discomfort during sexual intercourse, and urinary or bowel issues.

Diagnosis

We begin with a comprehensive assessment that includes a detailed medical history and a physical examination to determine the extent and type of prolapse.

Treatment

Options may range from conservative approaches like pelvic floor exercises and lifestyle modifications to surgical interventions that can restore the organs to their proper position.

Vaginal Prolapse

Vaginal prolapse specifically refers to the descent of the vaginal walls due to a weakening of the pelvic support structures. This can result in a bulging sensation in the vagina, difficulty with urination or defecation, and increased discomfort with physical activity.

Diagnosis

We conduct thorough evaluations to understand the specific characteristics of your vaginal prolapse, which may include imaging tests if necessary.

Treatment

Treatment may involve pelvic floor rehabilitation, the use of a pessary, or surgical options aimed at strengthening the pelvic support tissues and alleviating symptoms.

Bladder Prolapse

Bladder prolapse, or cystocele, occurs when the bladder drops into the front wall of the vagina due to weakened pelvic support tissues. Symptoms may include frequent urination, urgency, leakage, and a feeling of fullness or pressure in the pelvic region.

Diagnosis

This diagnosis includes a physical examination focusing on bladder function, and may incorporate urodynamic testing to evaluate how well your bladder is functioning.

Treatment

We offer a variety of treatment options, including conservative methods such as bladder training and pelvic floor exercises, as well as surgical procedures designed to lift the bladder back into its normal position and restore function.
