Symptoms of uterine prolapse

Female patients sometimes feel that their abdomen is dropping severely, especially during the menstrual period, when it is even more serious, and they may also experience symptoms such as lower back pain. Female friends experience discomfort and are also deeply tormented by these diseases. In order to help everyone better understand this disease and effectively treat it, we will now introduce the symptoms of uterine prolapse.

From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, uterine prolapse is believed to be caused by qi deficiency and sinking. This phenomenon mainly occurs when women have difficulty giving birth, sometimes when they exert too much force during delivery, or in women who have given birth multiple times. Therefore, if these women feel back pain when walking or squatting, they should pay attention and check whether they have uterine prolapse.

The patient feels that his abdomen is falling, and the pain is more obvious when he walks and squats. In severe cases, the dislocated mass cannot be put back, affecting his movement. Due to long-term exposure to the outside, the cervix may develop thickening and keratinization of the mucosal surface or erosion and ulceration. Patients experience increased leucorrhea, which is sometimes pus-like or bloody. Some also experience menstrual disorders and excessive menstrual bleeding.

Uterine prolapse is the downward displacement of the uterus along the vagina. It can be divided into 3 degrees according to the degree of prolapse:

1. Ⅰ degree

Uterine prolapse does not require treatment and can be recovered by resting.

2. II degree

It means that the cervix has protruded out of the vaginal opening, but the uterus or part of the uterus is still in the vagina. However, because the range involved is too large, in mild cases only the cervix may protrude from the vaginal opening, while in severe cases the cervix may be elongated, causing the entire elongated cervix and vaginal wall to protrude from the vaginal opening.

Grade II uterine prolapse is divided into mild and severe types: ① Mild Grade II - the cervix and part of the anterior vaginal wall are turned out of the vaginal opening. ② Severe Grade II: The cervix, part of the uterine body, and most or all of the anterior vaginal wall are protruded out of the vaginal opening.

3. Grade III

It means that the entire uterine body, cervix, the entire anterior vaginal wall and part of the posterior vaginal wall are turned out of the vaginal opening.

Through the above introduction to the symptoms of uterine prolapse, female friends may have a certain understanding of this. Here, health experts recommend that female friends who often experience back pain and abdominal distension should go to the hospital for a check-up to avoid missing the best time for treatment.
