Understanding Prolapsed Uterus: Symptoms, Causes & Treatment


Question
I'm not sure I'm using the right term.  Yesterday I discovered that something is pushing out of my vagina.  I believe that would be my uterus?  I'm 58 and the last time I was at the doctor, I was told my uterus had dropped.  The Dr.'s visit was longer ago than I care to admit.  My question is:  What procedures need to be taken? and is my evaluation probably correct and is this dangerous?  I am making a doctor's appt. today.  Thank you so much for your time.  

Answer
You are probably right. My website , www.mybladderMD.com , as well as the site for the American Urogynecologic Society, www.augs.org , have good info for you.

In my opinion, you should see a fellowship-trained urogynecologist.

Best of luck

I'm sure if you look at these two sites you will get all of your questions answered - and will probably be better prepared for your appointment.
