What are the symptoms of postpartum uterine prolapse

What are the symptoms of postpartum uterine prolapse?

Symptoms of postpartum uterine prolapse usually include abdominal distension, lower back pain, frequent and urgent urination, swelling, loss of libido, etc. It is recommended to seek medical attention promptly.

1. Abdominal distension:

It is related to vaginal delivery, aging, etc. Due to ligament fascia traction and pelvic congestion, patients will feel that their abdomen is falling, and the symptoms will be more obvious after standing for too long or fatigue.

2. Waist soreness:

After the uterus prolapses, it will drop to the position of the vagina and vaginal opening, thereby increasing abdominal pressure, aggravating the feeling of falling, and causing low back pain symptoms.

3. Frequent urination and urgency:

Patients with bladder and urethra swelling will experience symptoms such as difficulty urinating, urinary retention or stress urinary incontinence, and may experience frequent urination and urgency.

4. Tumor prolapse:

Frequent walking, squatting, etc. will increase abdominal pressure and cause swelling of the vaginal opening. The swelling may disappear or decrease after bed rest. As the disease continues to progress, it cannot shrink after rest and requires hand insertion into the vagina.

5. Decreased libido:

Some patients experience uterine prolapse, which can cause vaginal relaxation and shortening. They may feel vaginal pain during sexual intercourse, leading to a decrease in sexual desire.

Patients with mild uterine prolapse can improve through pelvic floor muscle exercises. If the symptoms are severe, you can undergo surgery such as Mann surgery, hysterectomy, vaginal repair, etc. under the doctor's supervision. Pay more attention to rest after surgery and reduce strenuous exercise.
