Prolapse awareness Month

Today marks last day of prolapse awareness month but it’s something I will keep reminding you all off.

Pelvic organ prolapse is when 1 or more of the organs in the pelvis slip down from their normal position and bulge into the va**na.

It can be the womb (uterus), bowel, bladder or top of the va**na.

A prolapse is not life threatening, but it can cause pain and discomfort.

Types:

The 4 main types of prolapse are:

📍the bladder bulging into the front wall of the va**na (anterior prolapse)

📍the womb bulging or hanging down into the va**na (uterine prolapse)

📍the top of the va**na sagging down – this happens to some women after they have had surgery to remove their womb

📍the bowel bulging forward into the back wall of the va**na (posterior wall prolapse)

😳It's possible to have more than 1 of these at the same time.

Symptoms:

👀a feeling of heaviness around your lower tummy and ge****ls
a dragging discomfort inside your va**na

👀feeling like there's something coming down into your va**na – it may feel like sitting on a small ball

👀feeling or seeing a bulge or lump in or coming out of your va**na

👀discomfort or numbness during s*x

👀problems p*eing – such as feeling like your bladder is not emptying fully, needing to go to the toilet more often, or leaking a small amount of p*e when you cough, sneeze or exercise (stress incontinence)

😳Sometimes pelvic organ prolapse has no symptoms and is found during an internal examination carried out for another reason, such as cervical screening.
