Pelvic Organ Prolapse occurs when pelvic organs such as the bladder, uterus and rectum drop from their normal position due to weak pelvic floor muscles. This can result in a feeling of pressure or fullness in the pelvic area. Symptoms may include painful intercourse, low back pain, and urinary symptoms.
Pelvic Organ Prolapse may be a result of chronic straining due to hemorrhoids, hysterectomy , pregnancy and childbirth, or chronic constipation.
