Abstract :
Uterine prolapse is a condition where the
uterus slips out of its normal position. 35-60 % of women
those who have given birth developed uterine prolapse,
Surgery is often required to treat uterine prolapse, but
unfortunately, and up to 35% of those who undergo
surgery will require repeat surgery. Uterine prolapse can
occur even after a hysterectomy, which suggests that the
current surgical management may not be effective in all
cases. The prevalence of uterine prolapse is likely to
increase with increasing life expectancy, as women live
longer and are more likely to experience symptoms
associated with aging. There are two main types of
uterine prolapse: Incomplete prolapse: the uterus slips
partway into the vagina, creating a limp or bulge.
Complete prolapse: the uterus slips so far out of place
that some of the tissue drops outside of the vagina.
Uterine prolapse is one type of pelvic organ prolapse,
which is a condition where one or more of the organs in
the pelvis (such as the uterus, bladder, or rectum) slip out
of their normal position. It’s great that you're
highlighting the importance of finding more effective
treatments for uterine prolapse, as it can significantly
impact a woman's quality of life.
