So how to treat uterine prolapse? This is what female patients with uterine prolapse want to know most. Everyone wants their body to recover as soon as possible. Let’s look at the specific treatment methods below. I hope the following content is helpful to you.

Uterine prolapse is caused by the relaxation or degeneration of the pelvic ligaments and muscles, which are unable to support the uterus and cause it to protrude into the vagina. Because women may suffer damage to the ligaments and muscles of the uterus during pregnancy or childbirth. Women who have had several pregnancies or difficult deliveries are more likely to suffer from uterine prolapse. If it is mild sagging, the cervix is ​​still inside the vagina. In severe cases, the cervix will extend to the vulva. In more serious cases, the entire uterus will extend outside the vagina. In mild cases, there may be some discomfort. In severe cases, the vulva may feel heavy and uncomfortable, and urination and defecation may be very difficult. Because when the uterus prolapses, the inner wall of the vagina will also prolapse. The front vaginal wall will be affected by the bladder, and the back vaginal wall will be affected by rectal prolapse. If the bladder muscles and ligaments are relaxed, the patient will suffer from urinary incontinence.

For postpartum uterine prolapse, here are several treatment methods for your reference.

1. General rehabilitation therapy improves physical fitness, strengthens nutrition, provides adequate rest, pays attention to the combination of work and rest, and maintains smooth bowel movements. Avoid compressing the lower abdomen to increase abdominal pressure and heavy physical labor.

2. For the treatment of uterine prolapse, a tray is placed in the vagina in combination with general treatment. It is suitable for patients with grade I and grade II mild uterine prolapse and moderate prolapse of the vaginal wall. Commonly used types include trumpet-shaped, ring-shaped, ball-shaped, and ball-belly-mushroom head pessaries.

3. Surgical treatment is suitable for patients who have failed non-surgical treatment or have severe grade II or III uterine prolapse complicated by bulging of the anterior and posterior vaginal walls. The choice of surgical method for the treatment of uterine prolapse should be based on the patient's general condition, whether or not she has fertility requirements, etc. It is recommended to treat under the guidance of a clinician.
