Pelvic Organ Prolapse

Do you have a heavy, dragging feeling in your vagina?
Can you feel a bulge at the entrance to your vagina?
Has your GP told you that you have a prolapse?

Pelvic Organ Prolapse is when one or more of the organs (the uterus, bladder, urethra or bowel) in the pelvis drop. This can be bothersome and annoying. It can also have a huge impact on your life, making day to day living uncomfortable and normally enjoyable activities unpleasant.

Common Symptoms:

• A thorough assessment to establish your goals, pelvic floor requirements and treatment plan
• A heavy or dragging feeling in the vagina, especially later in the day
• A bulge at the entrance to your vagina
• Discomfort with prolonged standing
• Not being able to enjoy general exercise
• Concern about the impact on intimacy
• Difficulty emptying your bladder or bowel
• Low back ache

How We Can Help:

• Design of a personalised pelvic floor muscle exercise program
• Progression of your PROGRAMME and application to daily activities
• Suggested modifications to minimise risk factors and maximise your function
• Consideration of a pessary to assist your symptoms in conjunction with your medical practice.
