Pelvic Organ Prolapse Pelvic organ prolapse occurs when the pelvic floor muscles become weak or damaged and can no longer support the pelvic organs.

Prolapse of the Uterus, Bladder, Bowel, or Rectum When the uterine ligaments are severed and the uterus is removed, prolapse of the bowel and rectum is inevitable. Some diminished support to the bladder is also typical. Prolapse of the vagina is also possible after hysterectomy. Vaginal prolapse is rare for women who have not been hysterectomized.

Rectocele/rectal prolapse and urine retention Rectocele/rectal prolapse and urine retention. I had a hysterectomy in 2003. I am 47 years young. Recently found out I had a rectocele or rectal prolapse. Having a bowel movement involves a latex glove to push it back in the wrong hole and out the right one. Somehow this causes bladder retention as well, and when I do this urine comes out as well. There is no actual hernia or tear, just a bulge.

Vaginal Prolapse Women's bodies cease producing estrogen naturally after menopause, and the muscles of the vagina may weaken as a result. In mild cases of vaginal prolapse, estrogen may be prescribed in an attempt to reverse vaginal prolapse symptoms, such as vaginal weakening and incontinence. For more severe prolapses, estrogen replacement therapy may be used along with other types of treatment.

Only 10% to 20% of women with pelvic prolapse seek medical evaluation for symptoms.

Other types of prolapse include prolapse of the bladder into the front wall of the vagina (cystocele), that of the rectum into the back wall (rectocele), and that of the small intestine into the top of the vagina (enterocele).

Uterine And Bladder Prolapse When this occurs, the uterus or bladder can create a bulge into the vagina. In severe cases, it is possible for the sagging uterus or bladder to work its way down far enough that the bulge can appear at the vagina's opening or even protrude from the opening. When the uterus sags downward, it is called uterine prolapse. When the bladder sags, it is called bladder prolapse, also known as a cystocele. Various stresses can cause the pelvic muscles and ligaments to weaken and lead to uterine or bladder prolapse. The most significant stress on these muscles and ligaments is childbirth.

Pelvic Organ Prolapse (dropped bladder, bowel, rectum, uterus) Pregnancy, childbirth or extra weight can stretch and weaken muscles that support your pelvic organs. A sheet of muscles and ligaments called the pelvic floor supports the uterus, small bowel, colon and bladder. If pelvic floor muscles are weak, your organs may drop and bulge into the vagina. When that happens, you may feel like something is falling out of your vagina or you may have a sensation of fullness or pain. It can also become difficult to hold urine or have a bowel movement. There are several types of prolapse: 1  Cystocele--tissues between the vagina and bladder weaken, and the bladder falls into the vagina. 2  Rectocele--tissues between the vagina and rectum weaken, and the rectum falls into the vagina.
