Welcome to EmpowHER. In most cases, uterine prolapse occurs when pelvic floor muscles and ligaments stretch and weaken, providing no support for the uterus. Some treatments for this condition are performing exercises called Kegels to strengthen your pelvic muscles, may provide symptom relief. Vaginal pessary, this device fits inside your vagina and holds your uterus in place. To repair damaged or weakened pelvic floor tissues, doctors often use a vaginal approach to surgery, although sometimes doctors recommend an abdominal surgery. A hysterectomy, which removes your uterus, also may be needed. Anon, have you seen a doctor about these symptoms?
