Is this a prolapse of any kind? 2 photos a month apart, looks like it's getting worse.

Posted , 3 users are following.

Hello, I gave birth in April and after that I noticed a funny piece coming out of my vagina. My doctor told me it isn't a prolapse, just the vagina wall. That was about a month ago. I have no pain, but it really concerns me. I feel a sensation similar to a tampon being pulled out from time to time. My doctor told me to do Kegels but that this might just be how my vagina is now. I'm not satisfied with this answer so I'll be seeking a second opinion, hopefully from someone who specializes in these sorts of things.

The photo with blood was taken one month ago. The other photo was today and it looks like it's bigger. I've been doing Kegels but it seems to bring no results yet.

What does this look like to you? Is there a way to deal with it naturally?

    Do you have any problems with passing a motion?

    It could be the back wall of the vagina, that has been stretched from childbirth, and is falling into the vagina, which is fairly common. Give yourself 6 months and keep doing those kegels. If you are still unhappy then you need a gynaecologist.Is this your first baby?Surgery on these sort of things is not usually considered until a woman has completed her family, because it could happen again.

      No problems with passing a motion at all, and this is my first baby, yes. Ok, I'll wait six months and continue to do Kegels. I appreciate your answer.
