Uterine Prolapse: Diagnosis and Treatment at Meerut Gynaecologist
Uterine prolapse occurs when the uterus slips down from its normal position into the vaginal canal due to weakening of the pelvic floor muscles and ligaments. This condition primarily affects women who have gone through multiple vaginal deliveries, menopause, or conditions that increase abdominal pressure such as chronic coughing or obesity. Uterine prolapse can range from mild, where the uterus descends slightly, to severe, where the uterus is entirely outside the vaginal opening.
Uterine prolapse not only causes physical discomfort but also significantly impacts a woman’s quality of life. Common symptoms include pelvic heaviness, a sensation of something protruding from the vagina, urinary difficulties, and lower back pain. Early diagnosis and intervention are key to preventing complications and ensuring effective management.
Causes of Uterine Prolapse
- Weakening of pelvic muscles due to childbirth, especially with large babies or multiple deliveries.
- Loss of estrogen during menopause, which reduces pelvic muscle strength.
- Chronic conditions such as obesity, constipation, or chronic coughing that increase abdominal pressure.
- Prior pelvic surgeries or injuries.
Symptoms of Uterine Prolapse
- Feeling of heaviness or pulling in the pelvis.
- Bulging tissue in the vaginal opening.
- Urinary incontinence or difficulty emptying the bladder.
- Discomfort during intercourse.
- Persistent lower back pain.

Vault Prolapse: Diagnosis and Treatment at Meerut Gynaecologist
Vault prolapse occurs when the top of the vagina (vaginal vault) descends into or outside the vaginal canal after a hysterectomy (surgical removal of the uterus). This condition arises due to weakened or damaged pelvic floor muscles and ligaments that fail to support the vaginal vault effectively. Vault prolapse can cause discomfort, urinary or bowel issues, and negatively impact a woman's quality of life.
Post-hysterectomy, the lack of uterine support can increase the likelihood of prolapse. The severity can range from mild cases, where the vault slightly drops, to severe cases, where it protrudes outside the vaginal opening. Early diagnosis and treatment are essential to prevent complications and restore pelvic health.
Causes of Vault Prolapse
- Pelvic floor muscle and ligament weakening post-hysterectomy.
- Increased intra-abdominal pressure due to obesity, chronic cough, or constipation.
- Multiple vaginal deliveries causing prior damage to the pelvic support system.
- Aging and reduced estrogen levels during menopause.
Symptoms of Vault Prolapse
- A feeling of heaviness or pulling in the pelvis.
- Bulging tissue in or outside the vaginal canal.
- Urinary issues such as incontinence, difficulty urinating, or frequent infections.
- Bowel problems like difficulty passing stools or incomplete evacuation.
- Discomfort or pain during sexual intercourse.
