Uterine Prolapse
Uterine prolapse occurs when the uterus descends into or outside the vaginal canal due to weakened pelvic floor muscles. This condition primarily affects postmenopausal women and those who have experienced multiple vaginal births. Symptoms of uterine prolapse include pelvic discomfort, urinary incontinence, and difficulties with bowel movements. Treatment options range from lifestyle modifications to surgery.
