Uterine Prolapse

The uterus (womb) is a muscular structure maintained together by pelvic muscles and ligaments. If these muscles or ligaments stretch or weaken they can no longer support the uterus resulting in prolapse.
When the uterus sags or slips from its usual position and into the vagina (birth canal) this is referred to as uterine prolapse.

Description:

Uterine prolapse can be either incomplete or complete. An incomplete prolapse occurs when the uterus sags into the vagina only partially. When the uterus falls so far down that some tissue protrudes outside the vagina this is referred to as a complete prolapse. Uterine prolapse has four stages: Stage I: Your uterus enters the upper portion of your vagina. Stage II: Your uterus enters the lower portion of your vagina. Stage III: Your uterus protrudes from your vaginal opening. Stage IV: Your entire uterus slips outside of your vagina. Other disorders are frequently related with uterine prolapse. 1.Cystocele is a herniation (or bulging) of the upper front vaginal wall in which a portion of the bladder protrudes into the vagina. It's also known as a prolapsed bladder. This might result in urinary frequency urgency retention and incontinence (urine loss). 2.Enterocele: A herniation of the upper rear vaginal wall in which a tiny part of the colon bulges into the vagina. Standing causes a dragging sensation and backache which is reduced by lying down. 3.Rectocele: A herniation of the lower rear vaginal wall into which the rectum bulges. This makes bowel motions difficult and you may need to push on the inside of your vagina to empty it.

Cause:

A combination of muscles and ligaments (pelvic floor muscles) hold your uterus in place within your pelvis. When these components deteriorate your uterus is unable to maintain its position and begins to sag. Several factors can contribute to pelvic muscle weakness including: •Menopause-related loss of muscular tone. •Pregnancy. •Vaginal childbirth is preferable especially if you've had multiple infants or newborns weighing more than 9 pounds. •Obesity. •Coughing or straining on a regular basis. •Constipation that lasts a long time. •Heavy lifting was done repeatedly.

Symptom:

Symptoms could include: •Pelvic or vaginal pressure or heaviness •Sexual intercourse problems •Urine leakage or a sudden impulse to empty the bladder •Low back pain •Bulging uterus and cervix into the vaginal opening •Recurring bladder infections •Bleeding in the cervix •Vaginal discharge has increased. When you stand or sit for an extended period of time your symptoms may worsen. Exercise or lifting may also aggravate discomfort.
