    1st words of advice is to see a urogynecogist. They specialize in pelvic floor dysfunction

    It's started on sat when I felt like something was falling out and fell a big lump. Have seen a doc on Sunday who basically said nothing was there. Had a smear on Monday nurse didn't mention it today saw the doc who said what it was but has not referred me any where she is more interested in the fm fact my cervix was red and swollen at my smear.

      If you are worried about it which you obviously are, go back to your dr, and ask to be referred to a urogynaecologist.

      I'm back with her on 6th re my cervix. I had burning when I pee for about a month is that a normal symptom of a prolapse ?

      Not really, but it would depend on how low down the prolapse is. If it's really low, ie, can feel it below your vagina, it could do,

      You need to get a list of questions written down that you can ask your gp when you go back. 

      If it's just happened and isn't causing any problems,he might decide to refer you for physio.

      She has told me I need to do pelvic floor exercises for 6 months. I'm such a worrier I keep thinking what if it's something more serious

      Hi kay, when I suspected a prolapse I was referred to a urogynacologist. A front wall prolapse is like a pink bulge atbtge entrance of the vagina. In some ladijes it can be lowe at the front. It felt likje a stuck tampon when I walked and standing for a long time. Please ask any questions love because its quite worrying when you have all these questions in your head. We have all been there, don't it and some of us are having to go through it againxx

      If your dr thinks it could be something more serious she wouldn't be waiting until the 6th to see you.

      A prolapse is very smooth, almost like a water filled balloon when you feel it, if she wants you to do kegals she must think that you can maybe strengthen your pelvic floor enough by doing that.

      Go with that, you don't want to be going down the surgery route unless it's absolutely necessary.

      The gp that I saw today said its a mild to moderate anterior vaginal wall prolapse but never mentioned which organ it involves

      It's just the stranges thing ever sometimes it almost comes out of my vagina and feels round but other times it's more inside and when I put my finger in to feel it it felt like a sausage or something 😳

      If its a anterior prolapse its your bladder/urethra that's dropped down. Mine was moderate but over time would of got worse..x

    • Posted

      Yes that's what its like., really strange feeling. It drove me crazy, and it still does. coconut oil is the only thing that eases the feeling for a bit. .x

      The kegals will strengthen but won't reverse it, but will stop it getting worse. Another important thing to remember is no heavy lifting. Gun.

      Like welshgirl says, an anterior prolapse is your bladdrer, and when you push down, it bulges and pushes your front vaginal wall out and down, then goes back up.

      Your gp probably thinks that if you can strengthen the vaginal walls enough to hold it in place it will be better to try that first.

      I regret looking in the mirror - the position I had to get myself in was like some form of yoga 😳 The bulge thing looked like it had a slight cut on it the doc said it just looked a bit sore and irritated

      Ate you sure its not your cervix? It could also be rubbing.you haven't said how old you are? Also are you done menopause love?

    • Posted

      Yes I agree laura. Physio is the first thing to do to stop it getting worse. I know prolapse inside out now after having one for 4years then deciding to have the repair which unfortunately didn't hold. I am only 8stone and did noithing for 4weeks post op.jusdt unlucky😢

      No I'm only 38 so hoping that's a way off. It's not my cervix as she checked that was in correct place. I have one child's who 10 born with forceps and episiotomy

    • Posted

      Ditto, forceps birth. Childbirth has a lot to answer for.
