Prolapse

I have been living with a rectocele for several years now without pessary or surgery. So far uterus and bladder still in place. It felt like the end of the world at first, I am terrified of surgery and read every word I could about prolapse online. I downloaded the NHS Squeezy app and ever since the problem has really improved. Pelvic floor exercises are the key. The prolapse is still there but I am not aware of it very often. I know that I will have to do the exercises for the rest of my life but it’s just part of my daily routine now. If I do become aware of the prolapse I find that leaning forward with hands on knees an wiggling my bum about seems to put it back in place. I am not sure which type of prolapse you have but I am sure some of this will help. Don’t subscribe to that expensive programme online I don’t see how that could help, because it’s the pelvic floor muscles that hold everything up and need to be made stronger, you don’t need to spend a fortune to do them. I highly recommend the Squeezy app.

Thank you Buttonjugs. My problem is internal bits trying to exit via vagina. Quite sore and doctor given me ointment to apply regularly. Awaiting another appointment with gynaecologist.
